Pappose Video- August 2011

I have always been timid of diving with sharks. One of the reasons I went to North Carolina to wreck dive was because the wrecks are known to have an abundance of sharks.  It was so thrilling to see so many sharks and to be so close to them.  One even bumped me..which is scary but, nothing happened other than it scaring me to death.  I cannot wait to go back next year and dive with them again.  I did not get too many photos of the sharks because I was too busy watching them in awe.  This wreck looks like a good wreck for artifacts, you can easily get inside the wreck since there is a tremendous break in the wreck.  However, there is a ton of sharks in the break and I would not want to go inside and be in close quarters with them...I'm not quite ready for that yet!

This video is two separate dives, dive #2 has more sharks in it but they are tough to see through all the schools of bait fish.  Since these are my first videos I have a lot to learn...Next year I should be able to shoot with a more steady hand and angle.

I have not given up on trying to go diving one more time for the season although my window of opportunity is narrowing quickly.  Perhaps I'll get out this weekend, I hear the water is still warm and the visibility has been good.
