Diving The Malahat

The Malahat is the wreck of a very well know 5-masted schooner that rests in the water just off the breakwater at the Mill

logpond, and she has become a popular dive site. (There's info and a photo at her Wikipedia entry.)

These two young men were preparing to make the dive when I caught them on Tuesday.

As a dive site the Malahat gets great reviews - while there may not be a lot of her left, apparently
the marine life around her is something to see.

Not only is he carrying all that heavy gear, he's carrying an extra 42 pounds of lead weight to

counteract the buoyancy of all that gear once he's in the water. 

One last check on that Nikon in it's waterproof housing.

And off they go to check out the Malahat.

At The Net

Heading through Willingdon Park on the way to the Beach Trail recently

it struck me that not only did I not take any "at the net" volleyball photos

this summer, I haven't seen anybody at the Willingdon volleyball net this summer.

Whatever that means. These are from the summer of  '14.
