Out of Sight Out of Mind

I love to dive and photograph all the wonders of the sea, however every once in a while I come across something that is disturbing, and it’s a shame to see things like this in the water. People need to remember that just because they can't see something doesn't mean it can't affect them and the world around them. These images of batteries were taken at Deep Cove near the marina in North Saanich BC.

Sanctuaries and Biodiversity Part 1

I headed over to Vancouver this past weekend to check out the dive expo that was taking place at the Vancouver Aquarium, and to visit the new Beaty Biodiversity Museum at UBC.

On the Saturday, Kelli, Ken, and I went to the aquarium to check out the dive expo, but the real reason for the visit was to meet up with some old friends and possibly make some new ones. My goal was to talk with some of the photographers I knew and to meet with Dr. Chris Harvey Clark concerning his new project: the Marine Life Sanctuaries Society. Chris and Roy Mulder have created this initiative to help build awareness and to preserve areas around the coast of BC. I really believe in this project and would love to see more and more people get involved. If your interested in this great cause please click on the link below and contact Chris or Roy.

One of the coolest things at the aquarium was the 4D Planet Earth theatre experience. If you have never been to an interactive 4D film, definitely put it on your list of things to do.

Our evening after the expo was filled with good food, good drinks, and I was able to begin laying the groundwork for adventures in 2011.
