Welcome to Pierowall and have a nice day! Weather as expected for late season in North Isles. Seeking and finding the opportunities for great diving and some cheeky citizen science style observations.

Great work Suunto. There have been many lovely comments about the screen and ease of use, but it’s the 3D dive profile that is exciting for citizens scientists. This can be annotated and exported to GIS via SubSurface, making it simpler to get survey data and sightings into a place scientists can use. This is from a dive today, with start and end of transect marked as ‘events’. Stay tuned for the export news! Thanks for the loan Cheers, Tim

Sometime it’s the shallows. Seagrass looking a bit forlorn on a low spring tide in April, but in full luscious summer mode in August. It’s a journey in time and space today…. Have a great ocean weekend everyone. Cheers Tim

'Are you diving Port Quin?' Said the man in the carpark. 'On a rebreather? Seems a bit heavy duty.' We had to agree, but it was an excellent day to dive a new CCR, get back in the water, experiment with the Insta 360 and generally have a lovely 100 mins in 7m of water enjoying a lovely, lovely seascape. Coffee and a flapjack to finish - didn't mind if we did! The Insta 360 is a new thing to me - the editing possibilities for story telling are so powerful - this is just a short taster of Port Quin - spoiler alert - now is a great time to enjoy some casually beautiful shore diving. Cheers, Tim

Super pleased to be chatting away here - citizen science, ccr and island hopping the Hebrides! Cheers Tim

It was a spur of the moment project, but totally useful for exploring how divers can use personal camera rigs for citizen science. There are amazing models made with expensive gear - if you don’t stretch to that, you can still contribute and all data is valued! Advice and courses totally available - just pm or email [email protected]. Cheers, Tim

Morning all! Stunning scenic diving awaits! A week has just become free on the excellent MV Clasina. 27th Sept to 2nd Oct is the perfect time to catch Orkney reefs in beautiful, late summer profusion. Obviously this is perfect for eyes wide open tourism and photography, but I do like a bit of citizen science, so there could be chances for some survey, photogrammetry or a Gaussian splat workshops. If this tickles you, then please like and share, pop a comment below or email me at [email protected]. I’m away for the weekend, but will have more details and costs early next week for anyone interested.

Have a great weekend everyone,

Cheers,
Tim

Thanks so much to everyone for the birthday wishes. It’s a BathyX birthday with the Avon MCM100 course at Vobster Quay. Surprise cake from the ever lovely team at Vobster! Let’s see if Bellingham, Kane et al have also got a surprise! Cheers, Tim

Super low tide trip to the beach back in April - a great chance to see the incredible structure of seagrass! The root mat is just such a strong fabric, retaining sediment and providing a foundation for the community above. Of course, the edges are fragile - storm or needless human damage starts an unravelling. In the meantime, enjoy and support your local seagrass - it’s working for you!

An amazing success story - diver sightings really help monitor these crayfish. But please don’t forget to CHECK CLEAN DRY your gear when arriving from other freshwater sites. Crayfish plague could wipe out this success!
