Working on a new project from the islands. Preparing a photo illustrated writeup of a day of diving and kiting in some beautiful fairly extreme conditions. First scooter free diving the windward dropoff of Klein Curacao looking for caves and other unusual features. Next some high wind kiting around this small barren island. Started by launching (getting yarded initially offshore!) in strong winds off the leeward shore in flat calm deep blue water and tacking around the island to the windward face.
Then running down in ten foot seas to shoot some shipwrecks being disintegrated on the rocks in pounding surf against the surreal barren rock back drop of the island and stark lighthouse. Shot both sessions with GoPro cameras, with one on the kite during the wind session. This is the wreck of the Maria Bianca Guidesman, a Venezuelan tanker almost half eaten by the sea. There is a lot of history to this small island too, strange that some of the details seem to have been largely forgotten. It should be an interesting story once completed.
