During the summer vacation I made my scuba diving cert (OWD) at Tauchsportcenter Wassermann.
That was organized as a cool camping event, along with the diving course - and they even made pasta!
It was a fun week with many great moments, I'm sure I will remember this for many years to come!

Sec. Frasco: “We have dive enthusiasts from all over the world and many jurisdictions, including North Asia, as well as Europe [who recognize] diving as a very strong product for the Philippines. We fully intend to capitalize on that and open up to new markets, especially in Europe in the Middle East by making sure that we can collaborate with the Department of Transportation to mount more flights from these jurisdictions.” #travel #tourism #Philippines #Diving

Time for more cephalopods! This time around, we have Wunderpus photogenicus (yes, this is really the scientific name). The first one we saw was in maybe 15 feet of water and our guide found it before we had all even descended. It didn't seem too bothered as photographers gathered around and snapped away. Philippines diving is epic!

A person floats underwater in the middle distance, arms open and legs still, looking at the surface of the ocean above. Some fish are nearby on their left and right, while large walls of underwater earth surround them on both sides. The quote on the photo reads, “Freediving is like meditation. It’s a connection with the sea, with yourself, and with your own limits.” by Guillaume Néry.

Dover #diving this weekend, but where shall we go? Spanking #weather conditions topside and a long #neap weekend to boot. We couldn’t have picked a better weekend. Plunge times seem to be around 10.00am and 3.00pm on Friday? #Sea state 2, #smooth so I won’t spill the #tea. If ever there seems to be a weekend to be #diving, this looks to be it!

Fondo marino en valle Niza, donde podemos ver en el fondo arenoso una ofiura blanca moviéndose tranquilamente.

Fondo arenoso donde apreciamos en primer plano una ofiura blanca moviéndose con elegancia.
Una de sus cinco patas está cortada a la mitad, le crecerá en un tiempo. Para ella eso no es mucho problema.
Del trozo de pata faltante podría generarse otra ofiura, es una de sus formas de reproducción.

Buceo cerca del fondo, a unos tres o cuatro metros de profundidad.
El agua está muy transparente, y se aprecian las pequeñas dunas del fondo arenoso.
Cierta sensación de estar volando sobre el fondo.
La visibilidad se extiende a unos quince a veinte metros por delante mía.
El color general es verde azulado.
En el fondo arenoso se mueven los reflejos del sol al atravesar el agua.
Es un lugar para soñar.

Hago una pasada sobre el fondo marino, observando una gran profusión de algas verdes adheridas al fondo marino y algunas piedras de medio metro que asoman entre las algas. Al final me acerco a un banco de salemas de entre quince y treinta centimetros, que no son sino peces con rallas amarillas a lo largo de su cuerpo.
La visibilidad no es muy buena, se aprecia algo de arena en suspensión que dificulta algo la visión.

Haciendo snorkel en Valle Niza encontré de casualidad esta cachorrita de sepia perfectamente mimetizada con la arena

Video de una sepia pequeña, como de diez centímetros. La encontré de casualidad semienterrada en la arena. Primero se quitó la arena de encima y pudé apreciar, no sin dificultad, sus formas... pero la transparencia y el mimetismo me dificultaba bastante el poder verla bien. Además no quería acercarme demasiado para no espantarla....
Enseguida se levantó de la arena moviendo de manera elegante y ondulante su faldita e inició la huida, traté de seguirla despacio pero ella no quería el encuentro. Tan transparente o translucida que se veía mejor la sombra en la arena que al propio animal. Tras grabar unos segundos la dejé en paz.
El movimiento de la sepia es explosivo, es muy fácil perderla de vista en cada arranque que da, por lo que lo mejor es no espantar a estos animales y no tratar de seguirlos, sino quedarse quietos a observar o fotografiar.
Me ha llamado la atención de esta sepia que no ha realizado los típicos y espectaculares cambios de color tan propios de las sepias.

Posado en una zona descubierta de una piedra con bastantes algas verdes desde donde me sigue observando adaptando una postura de ventosa, en la que su parte superior son los ojos saltones... las patas bien pegadas a la piedra excepto una por detras, y la cabeza tumbada y escondida para no sobresalir en exceso... está bien vigilar pero sin llamar la atención.

El color ha cambiado mucho, ahora tiene colores grises y blancos que hacen que se asemeje al fondo arenoso, excepto la zona de sus ojos saltones, la cual está casi negra. Sus ojos se ven claramente por lo que sobresalen, y tambien pueden verse sus sifones a ambos lados, prestos a dar empuje cuando sea necesario. No se distinguen detalles en sus patas, son un todo, como una ventosa, con las mancha de colores ya mencionadas blancas y grises.

Despues de plantarme cara mostrando su tamaño durante unos segundos decide huir, elegante como sólo un pulpo sabe hacer, impulsado por sus sifones y estirando de manera máxima sus patas, adoptando forma de huso, la cual es óptima para el desplazamiento.

El pulpo en este momento mantiene el color gris verdoso, pero ahora la cabeza tiene un color muy claro próximo al blanco, que hace resaltar más aún sus ojos saltones. En algunas de sus patas, dependiendo de su posición, se pueden ver en el envés las ventosas y en el anverso de cada pata se observan numerosos óvalos más claros, que le otorgan una gran belleza.
La cabeza, bomba impulsora, y con ojos atentos, avanza con una forma bastante hidrodinámica. A un lado de su cabeza asoma uno de sus dos sifones impulsores.
El suelo es de arena gris algo oscura, y hay algunas rocas claras de tamaño mediano, que están llenas de algas verdes y pequeñas algas marrones.

[1/4] El pulpo adopta esta postura en la que maximiza su tamaño para amedrentar, extiende sus patas y las faldas de cada una de sus ocho patas para crear una gran falda que lo hace inmenso.

Foto de un pulpo que hice salir de su madriguera. En cuanto me acerqué a él se puso en esta postura de plantarme cara mostrando su tamaño. Adopta esta postura en la que maximiza su tamaño dando forma con sus patas a una gran falda tras su cabeza. Aún asi las patas quedan curvadas hacia atrás, protegiendo la punta de sus extremidades de un ataque. Para dar forma a esta falda no sólo usa la postura de sus patas, sino que de cada pata extiende su velo, de tal manera que con cada pata y su velo obtiene esa forma de falda.
El pulpo en este momento tiene un color gris verdoso, bastante más oscuro por la zona de sus saltones ojos. En algunas de sus patas, dependiendo de su posición, se pueden ver las ventosas -en Malaga las llamamos botones- y en el velo de cada pata se observan numerosos círculos más claros, que le otorgan una gran belleza.
La cabeza está protegida tras "la falda", un poco echada hacia atrás, pero con sus ojos bien atentos. A un lado de su cabeza asoma uno de sus dos sifones impulsores.
El suelo es de arena gris algo oscura, y hay bastantes cáscaras de mejillones esparcidas en él.

Video de un pulpo que al principio adopta la postura de parecer amenazante: hincha su cabeza y pone sus patas para ocupar mucho espacio, como un vestido de esos inflados, en definitiva para aparentar más tamaño y parecer  una amenaza. Despues huye grácilmente, como sólo los pulpos saben hacer, se empujan a propulsion con sus sifones y ponen las patas en forma de cuña, muy hidrodinámicos. En su huída pasa por debajo de unas algas verdes como la lechuga, y acaba posándose en una pequeña roca desde la que mira dubitativo sintiéndose amenazado sin saber qué hacer.
Durante sus evoluciones se aprecian ciertos cambios de color .

So many of my questions are answered by the guys reviewing this video, but I have so many more.

I'm originally from Australia and my background is largely in #ecology, #zoology, #marine biology, #parasitology so this #bioinformatics lark has been quite a learning curve, but enjoying it thoroughly. Also into #wildlife #photography, #hiking, #skiing, #bouldering #diving and so on.
