Bob,
Cool video thanks for sharing.. maybe one of these days I'll drive up to check out the PNW diving scene..

I have the pleasure of being there Sep22 -- got to look into heating pads and increasing my layer of fat to cope with the cold tho

Let's see if this works ... it's a one-minute video. The first half is the shark ... the second half is me trying to figure out how to turn off the damn camera ...

What quality level/file format did you use on that video? When I try uploading to Photobucket there are lots of big square pixels.

Nice little vid. The last 30 seconds made me a feel a bit dizzy though Looks like you were spinning the camera around your head on a string just for fun.

Thanks for sharing

I dunno ... the camera takes an AVI file. And it gets converted to something else when it's downloaded in Photobucket.

That's pretty accurate. The camera's on a lanyard, attached to my wrist. For some reason, it didn't turn off when I thought it diid and kept recording (while it was spinning around my wrist on a string) as we turned the dive and headed up a bit shallower. I would edit it if I knew how ... this video stuff is all new to me ...

So who did you use for bait?

Me. But I lived to tell the tale.
