The red rocks of Isla Guadalupe blazed in the morning sun, a clear sky welcoming us after a stomach-churning 14-hour crossing. Lapping waves and the cries of fur seals on the nearby shore were the only sounds to be heard one hundred fifty miles from the mainland. The water roiled as foot-high fins sliced the surface like a knife through cerulean silk. It was a perfect day for a dive.

OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE APRIL 30th 2008
TWO FAMOUS WW2 WARSHIP WRECKS DISCOVERED!

The discovery of the wreck of the famous British heavy cruiser HMS Exeter, along with one of her two destroyer escorts, HMS Encounter, can now be ‘officially’ revealed for the first time after a successful multi day / multi dive expedition to the wreck sites.

Initially discovered in the Java Sea on 21st February 2007, almost 65 years to the day after their sinking, the extraordinarily historically significant discovery culminated five years of persistent searching by a dedicated core group of shipwreck explorers (see footnote for more details). However, it was decided at the time that news of the discovery would be delayed until high definition video footage and high resolution digital images of the wrecks were taken so there could be no doubt whatsoever as to just which wrecks the group had discovered.

Their recent April 2008 survey expedition entitled ‘Java Sea Revisited- The HMS Exeter Expedition’ has now accomplished that task and in honour of her brave crew left a Royal Navy Ensign attached to her port torpedo tubes to ‘fly’ in the ocean currents sweeping over the Exeter wreck site.

Memories are created just about anywhere. And when I say anywhere, I mean that memories are even created underwater – so the creation of underwater digital camera.

An underwater digital camera is not just used to capture underwater memories; some professional marine photographers also use underwater digital cameras in their business. Even marine biologists and scientists use underwater digital cameras to capture marine life and thus be able to study the life and properties of the marine life. But I think it is safe to assume that you, my reader, are neither a marine scientist nor a professional photographer. Like me, you are just some photo junkie who wants to capture underwater moments and just cant figure out how without ruining your cameras.
