Exploring the Salish Sea

A video compilation of diving the Salish Sea during the winter. I tried labeling the critters for identification purposes. Comments & critiques are welcome.

Awesome editing and shots man. Where is this place?

Thanks Henry. The Salish Sea is in the Pacific Northwest of North America. Specifically:

The Salish Sea is the intricate network of coastal waterways that includes the southwestern portion of the Canadian province of British Columbia and the northwestern portion of the U.S. state of Washington.

Great visibility. What time of year (and where) did you shoot the videos.

Thanks John! See the first sentence "A video compilation of diving the Salish Sea during the winter." It was this past winter. Viz during the winter averages about 20 feet. Occasionally it will get to 50, but that's very, very rare.

I love this video so much, and we have so many of the same critters in our backyard here in Alaska. Well done sir!
