While going through my archive, I came across a disc with photos from November 2007. It might help someone with their design, or some may just look at them and feel nostalgic. If you like them, I can post more photos. All the pictures are from nature, taken during a dive safari in the Red Sea.

How can you not like it? After all, we are all sea lovers here!

Spencer7805

Especially in such weather at this time of year.

Amanda5586

I liked the weather in Egypt the most in August-September. In winter, the nights are cool and the sea water is 21 degrees, which is not very comfortable.

Laura7633

At the end of October 2009, the "coldest" water was +27 at 40m.

Daniel8015

The end of October is autumn. The temperature difference in the Red Sea can be 1 degree from 0 to 100 meters. At 40 and 50 meters and deeper, I observed the temperature to be the same as at a depth of 1 meter. It's a different matter now! It's hard without a cracker.

Phyllis

The photos, as you noticed, were taken in November, depth - 30, night dive, t-28C, I would have gone in without a helmet.

Erin2730

At night and 30 meters? The Egyptians weren't diving, were they?

Tracey

Here’s a little more.

Jessica8898

Who asked about their cannibals? It was a safari, and there were very well-trained fighters in the group.

Amy5070

What’s so surprising? We also went on a night shift for 30, but our participants were 100% our own; their guides just pointed out what and where.

Stuart

Skilled fighters won't be able to handle 30 meters at night... although there is a miraculous "elixir" plus whiskey and... but after that, we only feel like eating.

Aaron6112

... you can do anything with the Egyptians... this might be the reason for trouble... I had an experience in my life when a guide gathered a group of novices and went down to 53 meters and even into an arch... while the briefing was a maximum of 30m, 60 min, 50 bar. A lot no longer surprises me; everyone is the master of their own health and life...

Alyssa6727

Let's not touch on the topic of diving techniques and group selection. I created this thread specifically for people to enjoy marine landscapes, no offense intended, and regarding diving, please feel free to message me privately; I would be happy to chat.

Kellie

Well, the topic has started, don't hesitate to share whatever you can, it will be useful for the sailors.

James8887

It's better not to joke with this fish...

Daniel9952

You can see the Red Sea.

Noah1632

Nightlife... The filming took place during a dive safari...

Daniel132

A few more sketches...

Jennifer5784

Sorry for the quality I took underwater photos for 20 currency units with a disposable camera or from a submersible through the glass

James3382

Sharks, moray eels, and..... rock n roll.

Gene1948

Great topic. Well done, guys!!!

Jessica8898

Where did you take a photo of such an animal?

Andrew7823

Krasnomorsk. St. Johns Reefs.

Katie5500

I love morays. I have a Echinoderm named Polizona, I've outlived two caretakers - the companies collapsed, and now she is living out her days with me, she's about 17 years old, has a good appetite, but can't see anything - a blind old lady... Sorry for going off-topic...

Matthew

In their youth, they don't see any better either; if you don't make sudden movements, you can hold their muzzle and pet them, but they react to sudden movements and shine, and then it won't be pleasant.

Robin

Stas, where have you been? Or is this from old trains?

William1830

What kind of motorcycles are there? Indian!? Like the name of a ship?

Hunter1471

Stas, what's the catch???

Karen2578

Yes. That's why I can't send the promised fry to many aquarists. On weekends, I'm in the water!

Randy

Wow! How much fish there will be!

Heather

Ugh, poacher damn it. Almost all over Europe, tricks are banned.

George5104

Dmitry respects the law (well..., almost always). Moreover, I have two sunken boats with electric fishing rods to my credit (those are the real villains!!!!) and kilometers of torn nets. I HATE BRACONIERS!!!!!

Nicole263

Is underwater hunting done with scuba gear?

Joseph591

Under no circumstances!!!!! With a scuba tank - pure poaching!!!

Wendy

So what are they "rolling the barrel" for here!? Some figures!?

Jeremy3637

We have a lively discussion on the forum, take a look when you have time.

Erin

Stas, where are you diving? We have quite a few underwater surprises here, we should organize a group dive.

Sheila

You understand that anything can be discussed on the forum. The negativity against poachers mainly comes from the opinions of envious and unsuccessful people. Yes, there are all kinds of people. But in my understanding, a poacher won't shoot small perch, roach, or pike... I NEVER shoot catfish smaller than 3-5 kg. (3 kg if I'm hunting "locally" and 5 kg if I'm on the Dnieper or Volga). My catch usually consists of a few trophy specimens.

Joseph8842

It would be nice. I dive everywhere, each time in a new place. We could organize a group dive somewhere in open water. As an option, we could dive in the Dnieper near the confluence of the Vorskla or Psel rivers. We could also dive near Zaporizhia in the area of Lysogorka (there is good and interesting hunting in the reeds at the end of summer).
