There is nothing like a bit of sunshine to warm up the walls and bring our street artists back outside! In the last couple of weeks, I have been so happy to have been invited down to shoot some fantastic work in and around the city of Toronto.

Scuba Diving With My New GoPro Hero 4K
As my username scubagal may have alluded, I am a certified open water scuba diver. I also volunteer my time with an organization called Project Aware, which for one thing, tries to clean the bottom of the ocean from human debris. So, when I purchased my GoPro Hero Black, I couldn’t wait to try it out! What I discovered, was a bit surprising, not just from the GoPro Hero4 Black, but also from photographing underwater.
Choosing the Right Mounting Accessory
Getting your buoyancy right when scuba diving and photographing coral is challenging because you don’t want to damage the aquatic life. So, I knew right from the start, that I needed some kind of mount to help me stabilize the camera and free me up to keep my buoyancy right. I quickly discovered that for kicking around on the beach, or for above water activities, the GoPro Head Strap Mount really works well. But for diving, it was never going to work. You simply cannot have goggles and a camera mount on your head at the same time. As you can see from this featured article photo, I don’t have that much space on my head!
Introduction of ScubaGal – Meet Me
I must start by saying that I am as surprised at writing this article, as you, my friends and family, are at reading it. Who would have thought that this secret and quiet passion of mine would amount to anything, let alone, THIS? Thousands of photos later, I am choosing the ones that changed my life, to share with you my journey that brought me here.
I remember clearly posting this picture. It was my first Instagram shot. I had been staring, so transfixed in the moment, blue ripples hypnotizing me. It was during this time that I needed creative release more than I ever did. We all have those moments, for sure, and with the uniqueness that makes us human, we all express them differently.
