Dive in Sulu


Our dive in Sulu is one of the most memorable dive in my entire life.

Why?

I know being a diver is also a risky job. Anything could happen even for expert divers. But not the kind of  danger that we encounter. Certainly you never think that you could be beheaded below for some reason but to think that you are somewhere near a group considered terrorist by the world government were accounted for beheading their hostages and making news since 2000.

After i took pictures of the sunken ship 210 feet under the sea, we examine all options on how to re-float the ship. After taking several shots at the ship, Nikonos V underwater camera is not working well now after 200ft. I checked my Nikonos V because the last time i took picture below, shutter did not work well. So I open my camera and saw some moisture so i decided not use our camera for the rest of day. Nikonos V has its limitations. Lesson learned? Gadgets never adjust unlike humans. We can adjust to situations. Even if it is made in Japan. But the good thing is we took enough pictures of the sunken ship.
