Apollo

July 11th, 2010 | Category: Dive and Waffle

The Apollo Barge presents some nice wide angle picture opportunities because it is upright and intact.

Despite a very slow decent and dry suit troubles, it was nice to get a deep dive in, it has been several weeks!

Peter Field’s was a willing model for the scooter shot and its either Peter or Marieanne Tibbitts in the other shot.

It is amazing how only 20 years ago, ships (is it technically a ship?) were just “dumped” to the point that no one really knows the history of this barge, and now there is such an uproar over the sinking of the HMAS Adelaide and its environmental impact.

On the Adelaide, looks like it will be sunk soon and thats great but wow, the Government and the organisers seem to have really stuffed up in terms of community consultation and sinking timings, I hope the community up there move on from it quickly.

MV Fairwind

July 01st, 2010 | Category: Dive and Waffle

I’m delighted to see some great work by Damien, Nipper and Fil getting due credit on ABC TV’s “7.30 Report” last night.

The trio have been the first to dive, and hence confirm the identity of, a wreck off South West Rocks in NSW that is now known to be the MV Fairwind.

Check out Damo’s blog here for some great Canon 7D video at90 metres!
