5 Dives this weekend, all in Smögen, near Gothenburg, Sweden.

All more or less wall dives, wonderfull, lobsters and nudies...LOVED EVERY SECOND OF IT!

Edit: We did 4 boat-dives arranged by my LDS and hired boatstaff from KON-TIKI, Smögen. It's too easy diving from a boat...Especially when you'r doing one way wall dives or drift dives call it what you want. Just to deploy the smb on the safetystop and pick-up is on it's way...Lovely.

Gliding with a big male Chimaera (more commonly called Rat or Rabbit Fish) at Driftwood Beach County Park (Admiralty Beach) yesterday evening was Awesome!:)

I have never been so close to a chimaera before. My buddy and I met the fish while drifting in the current. The fish seemed to be 'interested' in us and we all glided together until my buddy pointed a finger at him and the fish got spooked somewhat. The Chimaera responded by lifting up its fleshy appendage located on his forehead (a show that I missed because I was too busy in messing around with the camera and taking very spotted pictures!). He then slowed down while we kept drifting like two pieces of driftwood and we got separated. The time with that odd looking fish was over. He disappeared in the darkening water while we kept sharing the ride with floating blades of kelp and a mixture of other organic particles until the dive was over.

We reached a depth of 59 ftSW (if you go deeper you may end up being swept away by the current into a large channel busy with ships and boats of all sizes) and it was high tide. Bottom time was just 34 minutes (well my air consumption is still quite high:depressed:). In the larger scheme of things the fact that I can experience this underwater world at all is a 'miracle'!

Here is the Chimaera!

Later on we met a very patient flat fish (I think it was a Rock Sole). We hovered in the water against the current for a little while to take some less spotted pictures.

Here is the Rock Sole's grim
