Underwater Playground: Underwater Photo Feature

Underwater Photo Feature

I just received a PDF of a photo feature about my underwater photography which was published in the “Lens Flare” section of “Ocean: The World of Luxury Yachting” magazine which is published in the land down under. You know, that place where women glow and men plunder. Yes, indeed, I’m talking about Australia.

Ocean Magazine

A huge thank you to Hillary Buckman (Mother, wife, slave to business, wine lover, ocean protector, traveller and lover of the odd party) and her team at Ocean Media Australia for featuring my underwater photography.

Graveyard of the Great Lakes: Tobermory’s Shipwrecks

Posted on Comments are off

Our latest Third Age Expeditions column for LuxeBeat Magazine has been awarded “editor’s pick.” The editor commented… “Perfect article for October.” Kathryn and I were not thinking about Halloween when the finishing touches to the piece were added, so incorporating the word “Graveyard” into the article’s title was kismet.

Raptures of the Deep: Beneath British Columbia’s Emerald Sea

Posted on Comments are off

“Raptures of the Deep: Beneath British Columbia’s Emerald Sea”, our latest Third Age Expeditions column for Luxe Beat Magazine, has just been published.

Splendor In The Pass

Queen Charlotte Strait lies between the “top end” of Vancouver Island and British Columbia’s mainland. It is an immense waterway with narrow, constricted passages, fjord-like inlets, large islands and a tangled maze of scrawnier weather-beaten islets. Seasonal upwellings combined with extreme tidal water movement produces an enriched planktonic soup that supports a lush profusion of exotic marine life and more than 400 species of marine fish. These waters also support a healthy population of marine mammals and are deemed to be one of the best places on earth to observe seals, sea lions, dolphins, porpoise, Minke whales, grey whales, humpback whales and a resident pod of more than 100 killer whales.

Fish Photography: The Ultimate Undersea Skill

Posted on Comments are off

Our  latest Third Age Expeditions column about “Fish Photography: The Ultimate Undersea Skill” was published today by Luxe Beat Magazine. It was also selected as an Editors Pick Feature.

Approach tactics

Use whatever cover the reef terrain provides and keep the sun behind you. As you slowly creep forward, use as little extra movement as possible and decide how you will frame your subject. If the fish appears nervous, stop and play the waiting game. Every fish has a minimum approach distance. If you violate this limit, the fish will likely swim away. If the fish seem really skittish, simply leave the area and return later in the dive to try again. By then, they will have forgotten about you and resumed their normal routine.
