I have been strangely fascinated by the rest of the world since a very early age. Nearly visiting every US state before graduating from high school, it wasn’t until joining the Army that I really ventured off of the North American continent for the first time. That was all it took to inspire the insatiable wanderlust that now drives me to new destinations across the globe.

Camia II Wreck Dive – Boracay Philippines (Apr 09)

The Camia II was kindly donated by the President of the Frabelle Fishing Corporation, Mr. Francisco Laurel Jr. This former fish-catch carrier is 37 meters long, 7 meters wide and has a height at the top of its crane tower of 12 meters. It is made of steel and languished for years in the Navotas Fishing Port in Metro Manila.

Yea dude. Was good vis and the camera worked out pretty good. A little photoshop and I was all set. The originals had too much blue I couldn’t filter out with the internal filters in the camera.

“…kindly donated by…” Wow, thats a lotta PC.

The wreck is my favorite location, hands down. I prefer trailing behind everyone and quasi-ditching the buddy system so I can look at stuff rather than follow the leader like taking a city tour from the backseat of a taxi. Theres always certain small spots I like to check like the small coral patch on the stern with a colony of tiny black/white clownfish that dont like me… they’re so cute when they’re angry. Nearby is usually a tiny scorpionfish that no-one else ever sees.
