Obviously the pictures that follow are not diving pictures (sadly). This fish was caught in the Virgin Islands earlier this week and we really would like to know what it is. For that reason I hope people will forgive pictures of a fish literally out of water. Unfortunately it was night and my...
So whenever we go anywhere I always try and do a little research to see if there are any local sharks I can dive/snorkel with - I'm a little bit of a sharknerd....Anyway, my fiancee and I will have roughly a day and a half driving through the florida keys in june and a bit of googling the...
So I dunked the e900 for the first time today ;D. The day started badly as I assembled my rig and realised the screws for the ike housing base are a different size to those on the fuji so I couldn't screw the tray on. Hence no external strobes and no AD lens caddy. Everything below is done on...
Well this is sort of dive related as I'm sure a number of us have seen these fabulous birds on dive trips and some of the threats to them also threaten other animals divers love like turtles. The idea is to collect 100,000 names which, rather soberingly is the number killed each year by...
All this talk about the O and earlier the Sg have got me thinking - Does everyone get the same buzz diving a deliberately scuttled reef as a wreck with real history to tis sinking? Is anyhting lost because of the sanitization of the wrecks or the lack of a backstory?

I'm headed to the carribean shortly and I know american (and therefore i presume carribean) dive ops tend to use psi instead of bar. Can anyone just confirm the relevant conversion ratios and give any tips on anything specific to the us type diving ops I need to know?

Does anybody know if its still possible to dive that buoy with the silkies off of (I think) New Providence. I can't seem to find any uptodate info and seem to remember hearing the buoy was decommissioned.
I'm going to be in capetown for the first week of novemenr and would like to dive with/photgraph the 7 gill cow sharks and small cat sharks. Can anyone recommend operators/dive sites?
To set out the scenario, A group of divers being led by a local guide drop onto a plateau at 35m. We are diving an island 8 hours from land by liveaboard. There is strong current and surface swell The dive plan involves us hanging briefly on a plateau at one end of the island watching the blue...
I may get the chance to do spend a few weeks diving in asia in september my plan was to dive with two or three centres in the philippines rather than move from country to country. I was thinking of malapascua and moalboal primarily but would welcome information or other suggestions. I would also...
