? - ! - ? | A 2024 Monterey Shootout Video Montage
When seaside curiosity begs for a deeper dive, beware the Seasyphian itch that comes with scratching beneath the surface: ? - ! - ? ∞
Please enjoy my silly little skit filmed and edited in 36 hours during the 2024 Backscatter Monterey Shootout photo video contest. This underwater photography contest is the highlight of my year every time that it has run, and after a five year hiatus, I'm thrilled that it's back bay-be!! I'm stoked that this submission was given an honorable mention in the video montage category-as long as the video gets played in the auditorium to all the contestants, I feel like I've won the whole shaboodle.
Congrats to the ever-inspiring Kate Vylet for her winning showcas...

Pycno Patrol #1 | Midnight Diving In Monterey Bay
Просмотров 3673 месяца назад
It's been six years since Monterey Bay last had a *documented* sunflower starfish sighting, but recently, rumors have spread of a few Pycnopodia helianthoides bb's recruiting to Oregonian reefs and even here in my California backyard. So last week we went for a midnight dive at the Breakwater to see about finding us a Seasquatch.... Spoiler: None were found, but we did have a bioluminescent pla...

Ain't nothing better for the Kelp Kultists than a perfect viz SCUBA dive at good ol' Monterey Breakwater. The subtidal playing field just offshore of San Carlos Beach at the end of Cannery Row is the perhaps THE most-dove site in all of California-countless dive careers have been launched through the Coastguard Jetty's kelp forests and magical reefs. And though some may poopoo the Breakwater fo...

a breakwater night | Night Dive In Monterey Bay

Winter in Monterey Bay brings some of its best conditions-well, at least in terms of visibility! With 2021's nonstop mega-swells and the early evening darkness, the underwater photographer must jump at any window in the forecast to get their gills wet. Check out the cool critters I saw on a calm night dive between the storms at the Monterey Breakwater this weekend! Of Note: Red octopuses have b...

    MY INNER MONOLOGUE: (was it anyone else too!🫣) A sunfish! Wait. Do sunfish live in that type of area?…..where is this again? There was a seal so it’s probably cold. Man, it has such an interesting shape and I’m pretty sure it was flapping its fins like wings…but then again, maybe it’s a more common creature and I just can’t place it because it’s facing towards the camera and the depth perception is kinda skewed…Hmmmmm.. it might have helped if I put on my glasses.

      Sunfish are my favorites, and between the five types-Mola mola "common", Mola tecta "hoodwinker", Mola alexandrini "bumphead", Masturus lanceloatus "sharptail" and Ranzania levis "slender" sunfishes-they are found all over the world from temperate to tropical waters. We have both Mola mola nd Mola tecta here in Monterey Bay, they come in every year as juveniles and adults to feed on jellies!

    • @arrowlina
      @arrowlina 22 дня назад

      “Force naps on yourself is sooo funny” I use it to meditate! First, I wind down by staring at the swaying kelp and colors and light peeking through..then I close my eyes and zone out to the scuba bubbles and breath sound! This is a treat!

  • @AVSSharky
    @AVSSharky Месяц назад

    The right side is has more kelp but the left side the drop off is more abrupt and comes up quickly,my dive buddy and I hit 110’ very quickly and found the shelf as a staircase of rocks climbing up to around 80’ ,anemones are huge and fish are very big because the water is deeper and more open. Anywhere out there is a great dive, just read the water and weather before diving 👍

      Thanks B! The goal for me would eventually be to upload *all* the sightings from a dive, because we need that background “baseline” info just as much as the outlier stuff. I often have my exciting ones up first because that feels so gamified but I’m trying to get better at taking the time to upload all the stuff i can recognize or that could realistically be recognized later… You never know what’ll be the important to someone else!

    judging by the size of the eye of this octopus vs rest of its body it must have been a humongous one 😮 was it also that cold last time you saw one?

    • @underwaterpat
      @underwaterpat 2 месяца назад

      It was huge!! From the narcosis/excitement it was hard to gauge exactly how big but it reminded me of some of the bigger ones at the Aquarium, which were like 60lbs and over 12 feet across, but hard to know… Yes off Big Sur the water was like 47-48 that year with the upwelling, rough in my old wetsuit ahah

    Awesome tour. Why are you not taking dive flag or buoy?

    • @underwaterpat
      @underwaterpat 4 месяца назад

      Heya! As I understand it, we don't need dive flags or buoys at this site because power boats avoid this area due to a mix of regulations and community practice because it's such a heavily dove site, especially right there along the breakwall. There are some spots you can swim to from the wall that end up in the boat lanes (like the barge or Metridium fields) but if you're swimming that far, you're also definitely trying to get back closer to shore before surfacing, and you would shoot an SMB if you needed to. It isn't as big a deal here as it is in Hawaii or Florida for example, there's not as much traffic where the dives and boats intersect, and if you are diving out that far you're probably on a dive boat anyway.
