Captured this image of a banded guitarfish back in 2018 in the Sea of Cortez. This trip was jam-packed with awesome critters and I barely knew how to use my camera to capture them. Might be time for a return trip.
Another beautiful and cold month underwater here in New England. I managed 3 dives in New Hampshire and 1 in Massachusetts. I easily saw a couple hundred nudibranchs over the course of these dives
This dive at the Fort Constitution Research Pier in New Hampshire in late March was jam-packed with nudis, but the barnacle-eating nudibranchs in particular were EVERYWHERE. My gloves were leaking, so my hands were very cold (41F ) but this was a nice dive!
Today is National Dolphin Day, so I'll share a few pictures of these awesome marine mammals. Here's a still and some video from my best dolphin encounter. The pod of over 100 cruised by half asleep and several drifted quite close to me. It was amazing!!!

Visited Folly Cove for the first time in a few months and found a nice variety of different nudi species. We saw a couple Ancula gibbosa, a few Ananthodoris pilosa, and even an Onchidoris muricata. My favorite find of the dive was a large mysis shrimp that I followed for a bit and managed to photograph in the water column. Nice dive!
Some images from another excellent dive at Peirce Island in Portsmouth, New Hampshire in mid-March.

Just posted my February wrap-up of dives. It's a short one since I only managed two dives that month, but I did get some interesting photos.
An underwater camera set up 55 years ago to try and photograph the Loch Ness Monster has been found by accident by a robot submarine.

Some pictures from a dive at Old Garden Beach in Rockport, Massachusetts back in February. The last image is from a test deployment of ropeless fishing gear - very cool!
Some images from a dive at Peirce Island in Portsmouth, New Hampshire back in February. This site is absolutely jam-packed with life this time of year and this dive was no exception. The sculpin eggs were a real treat!
Blennies are one of my favorite macro subjects. There are so many different species and it is really fun looking for their tiny heads peeking out of rocks and corals. This one is a spinyhead blenny spotted in Cuba. I used a snoot to spotlight the tiny blenny while keeping a dark background and foreground.
