Photo gallery from the mediterranean sea

[Scubacastor]

Hello,

I made a photo album of some cephalopods we meet during night dive near Nice in France. The introducing text is in french but I am sure you already know what it says (it is a gallery for non-divers with explanation of where the animals live). Enjoy

Anyone looking for some new desktop wallpaper? That 5th Octopus vulgaris photo is my personal favourite.

Thanks for your comments

If some of you want "high-res" pics (1600x1200) from this album, keep me posted and I will put them somewhere on a website for download

Next dive is tonight, I hope to see some squids but I think they won't be difficult to find

Les photos sont tres jolies!

Very impressive photos! I felt a great sense of awe while looking at these pictures. It reminded me of how moved I was as a little girl when watching tv programs about Jacques Cousteau's underwater adventures.

Can you tell us more about your diving experience? Are you a professional diver and photographer?

I have always wanted to learn how to scuba dive and your photos made me want to join a scuba class as soon as possible. I am looking into classes now. Thanks for the inspiration.

Thank you for your interests. It's a pleasure to see you like my pictures

It's just a hobby for me. I am a recreationnal diver - just diving for fun - but I like underwater photography and videography !

After squids this winter, it is now time for cuttle-fishes to come where I dive and after cuttle-fishes, we will see many octopuses !!!

More photos to come... soon !

What kind of camera do you use?

 

[Scubacastor]

Just an old digicam Powershot A40 from Canon. Most of these pics were taken during night dives, some with an external strobe, the others with a 50W video light.

I have been very busy these last months so I didn't find enough time for some night dives but this is now a matter of days until next one with some upgraded equipment
