Norman's Cay in the Bahamas was a base of operations for the Medellin drug cartel until it was raided and shut down in the 1980s. One the relics left behind is this plane that didn't make it to land and crashed into the shallow water nearby.

This site is about 20 feet deep and jam-packed with fish and critters, so it's a nice dive stop on a Bahamas trip. We had 9 divers about to splash, so I jumped in first and kicked over to get some clean shots before the group arrived. This was only my third dive with the fisheye lens, so I spent a lot of time playing with composition and lighting. I like how this one came out!

Ghost ship

The remains of a 17th-century Swedish navy shipwreck have resurfaced in #Stockholm. The wreck, hidden under water for hundreds of years, has been visible above the surface since early February due to unusually low Baltic Sea levels.

Underwater biking

Fish swim around the underwater remains of the British cargo ship SS Thistlegorm, which was sunk by German aircraft in 1941 after being deployed to transport military supplies from England to Egypt during the second world war. The wreck, which is near Sharm El-Sheikh, is one of the Red Sea’s most popular diving spots, with armoured vehicles, torpedoes, Jeeps, rifles and Norton motorcycles on view.
