Amazing pics. Have been to Ontario (and Huron) twice in the past month and haven't been able to dive. How late does the season go there?

Amazing photographs, and amazing dives. Have a blob

.

I'm gonna have to go to Toronto to freeload off my brother one of these days

, and do some of this diving

.

Probably a little too cold for my now thinned down tropical skin.

Hi Jonathan,

Camera was D100 in Aquatica housing. 10.5mm fish eye lens. Strobes Ikelites SS200. ISO 400, shooting RAW

Aperture started at 2.8 (wide open) but then moved all over the place as did shutter speeds. The wreck is on an angle, so needed to change settings quite a bit. Shooting fully manual including strobes.

End of September is when most of the charter operators shut down.

On the St. Lawrence river, we had some charters up to mid-November.

Shore diving after that.

Last weekend. Lake is at its warmest now.

63F (17C) above and 43F (6C) below the termocline.

Wish I was there. What was the water temp and what time of year did you go? Who was the boat operator?

This nickname has caused a few confused looks, that's for sure. People just do not expect the "Russian guy with a camera" to be a girl
