My underwater ROV project

ROV-remotely operated vehicle.

I am currentlty adding remote controlled motor thrusters to my drop down camera system which will allow me to maneuver the cameras along the ocean floor while viewing and recording the undersea scenery live on the surface in a boat. This project when complete will greatly expand my reef exploration and video photography capability.

to my latest work. Note that the marine life is not at all disturbed by the camera presence. They seem to just go about their usual business. Not necessarily true with SCUBA diving. The fish are disturbed by the bubbles and the noise of  human breathing.

I haven’t been out much in the past several months due to unusually rough sea conditions. Hopefully, I will get some opportunities this winter between the fronts passing through. Have a nice holiday.
