Cave diving in France
One of our favorite region for diving is the Lot region in #France. The picture shows @tinca_tinca in the beautiful cave Cunhac, for some divers also known as 'Ressel 2'. It is quite small cave, a few hundred meters long and 45m deep. But nonetheless it is always worth a dive. Especially if the visibility is good.
From a diver's perspective
This is the entrance area of the #CuevaDelAgua an underwater #cave. The view upwards shows you an impressive ceiling. It somehow reminds you of stalactites. But this cave wasn't dry long enough for that. You think about how the water has created this work of art over thousands of years...
What will you discover around the next corner?

Osama Gobara - #cavediving Explorer
What I really like in Os is his humble manner. The guy does dives down to 150m in remote areas. Expeditions in caves without seeing light for weeks.
But he is also a very good teacher. And you can see from look in his eyes that he just loves #diving. No matter what.

The Pines Cave (5L-61), in the Lower South East of SA, has been extended another 100 meters in a mostly NW direction. The new tunnel now comes within 15m of Stinging Nettle Cave (5L186).
Three Sisters Cave in Tantanoola has a new entrance located further off a rural road where cars can pass at 100kph. The site is now reopened under a CDAA lease agreement with the Wattle Range Council. Cave divers can now access the site with a greater degree of safety.

I love a reading challenge because it makes me pick up books I would never otherwise choose. For the 'sports personality' prompt of the #thestorygraph genre challenge I picked up. Into the Planet by Jill Heinerth. Fascinating experiences and the storytelling was great. https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/e32b3de9-fe86-4cd9-9fd1-567a36ff5293 #books #bookreview #cavediving #scuba
The Nullarbor, which stretches hundreds of kilometres across outback Western Australia and South Australia, is home to one of the world's largest karst cave systems. They form a sprawling underground network with some up to 35 kilometres long.
Cave diving scientist Dr Stefan Eberhard renews calls for Nullarbor World Heritage listing
OnThisDay in 1935, Penelope Powell and Graham Balcombe did the first-ever cave dive. They did it here in Somerset in Wookey Hole Caves.
More on Penelope in Unsung Women in Somerset (Junior Edition), coming in autumn.

Cave diving is firmly on my list of 'hard nos', not even once! Cool finds though!
Recharging from the emotional labor of mediating between engineers & lawyers.
So many of my questions are answered by the guys reviewing this video, but I have so many more.
Diving in the deserted Chernobyl plant, good idea! Let's do this because we can!
Jill Heinerth is a professional cave diving explorer & underwater filmmaker.
In 2001, accompanied by diver Paul Heinerth & underwater filmmaker Wes Skiles, Jill Heinerth captained an expedition to the B-15 Iceberg in Antarctica.
Fortunately for her crew, she’s one of the most accomplished cave divers on the planet.
The iceberg tried to kill them three times. They kept going back inside.
