Port St Mary shallows.

The shallow water around Port St Mary in the south of the Isle of Man, where I spent two long, slow days after the chamber looking at the smallest things on the seabed.

After the chamber I spent two days diving with the most amazing “Doc”, neither of us ever more than 5 metres deep, staying down for over three hours at a time, hunting nudibranchs and photographing macro life.
