Life on the Hi'ialakai: a few photos

We just spent two days at French Frigate Shoals, most of which I spent diving or sleeping. Our research is going very well, which keeps me pretty busy, but I still find time to snap a picture or two. Here are some shots of the cruise so far!

Boy, diving all day every day sure makes you miss a bunch of stuff on the internets. Here's a quickie catching up of things I should have told you about already: Jason tagged me in a meme because I have some kind of substance*. It would be breaking web etiquette not to follow suit. So here's the…
During my sabbatical last year, I decided to try to do a photo-a-day project, taking and sharing at least one good picture a day of something or another. The strict photo-a-day format fell victim to my general busy-ness and disorganization, but I did eventually complete the whole thing. In the…
Since I've given up on the strict daily arrangement, I'm going to somewhat arbitrarily assign photos from the cruise numbers corresponding to the days of the last two weeks. I'll do this in two big photo dump posts, grouped by whether or not SteelyKid and The Pip are in the shots. And since this is…
The 2007 World Science Fiction Convention will be held in Yokohama, Japan this year, and Kate and I are going. It's a bit of a delayed celebration for my tenure-- I'll be on sabbatical in the Fall, so I won't need to worry about prepping a class for September, and we can make it a nice vacation. We…

This reminds me of when I used to go out on fishing vessels as a scientific observer. I bet the research vessel has a much nicer feel to it, but no less busy.

The pictures you have shared over here are really nice and that picture of rainbow is so amazing and I have not seen it in real. It is just one chance to get picture of it and you have taken it very well.

These all pictures which you can shared over here is really very fantastic. The rainbow pictures are really very amazing in these there are so many things which is really great It is just one chance to get picture of it and you have taken it very well.

I am glad to hear that the research is going pretty well. I have to say that you really did manage to get pretty good shots here. The second and third photograph is simply superb. Certainly, it brings a nostalgic feeling for me as I had experienced similar natural beauty whilst in a cruise. The view of the ocean in the dusk is certainly something to see. In fact, I would call it a jaw dropper.
