Diving on el cabron November to December 2011.

The dive was in El Cabron Gran Canaria. The huge shoal of Roncadores (also known in English as 'Bastard Grunts' because of a snorting noise they make) was at the bottom of a deep descent down to 22 metres (see vid). Click on any of the photos to enlarge, I have tried to identify the fish, but may have made the odd mistake. Pics and vid are from an Intova CP 9 Camera and the dive profile was done on my new Suunto D4i dive computer/watch. Compressing the video has lost a bit of colour and definition compared to the DVD that I made.
