Come to the Dry Tortugas.... and get a freebie.

I'm going to be working on the M/V Spree this summer in the Dry Tortugas.... and I want you to come out and dive with me. I'll be working as photo pro on the boat, shooting video of the diving, giving out photo pointers, renting cameras, etc.

The Dry Tortugas are an island chain about 70 miles west of Key West Florida. It's part of the Keys National Marine Sanctuary, and has a lot of interesting dive sites to explore. The boat leaves out of Key West, so definitely book a couple of extra days down there so you can indulge in a little Key West fun.

And here's the freebie... for the first 10 people to sign up for the June 11th trip, I'll give away a free u/w camera rental for two dives, plus a photo CD of the shots you took, plus, time permitting, we'll work together doing some photoshop work on one of your images to make it print ready. Of course, if you can't make it out on the June 11th trip, I'd still definitely like to you have you onboard, and you can probably talk me into the same deal for a different trip date. To sign up, go to the Spree's website, click on May, June or July and book yourself onto a trip. Then drop me an email saying you signed up.

I could ramble on about how much fun diving in the Tortugas is, but you probably get enough spam in your inbox without me going on about the beautiful gorgonian covered reefs, turtles, sharks, dolphins, great macro life, Key West nightlife, free nitrox, good food, great new friends, etc, etc, so I will stop now.

Did I mention that there are Goliath Grouper down there? Check out this little sequence from last year (I was shooting video - these are video frames):

Ok, now I am stopping.
