Why are you diving in the Baltic Sea. There's nothing to see there.
This common assumption persists. It is true that big oceans have bigger attractions, but our advantage is the ascetic nature over and under water.
I have organised many bug safaris for less experienced Finnish divers. Afterwards their eyes have barely fitted in their masks because they've been so wide with amazement: "there's a looot of stuff there".
If the water is not that clear, you need to watch and concentrate a little bit harder. Soon you'll see more and more interesting creatures, when you know where to look and what kinds of things, of what color and size, you might see in that environment.
These photos have been taken on a beautiful summer day somewhere between Hanko and Tammisaari, near a small island. We dove, sunbathed, ate, explored the island - that's the best way to spend a Sunday.
Not to hurry is the essence of everything. I stalked this shrimp for a long time. At first there were two shrimps, but one of them went into hiding in the sand, and the other one decided to stand on his friend. I lied infront of the shrimp so long that it wasn't scared of me anymore. After a while, I got to take several photos of it. This photo is one of the best ones I took.
I followed the principle of not to hurry also with this three-spined stickleback. It was having its meal in a shallow water, and by approaching it little by little, it let me come very close.
Sunlight gave this phenomenon a whole different frame: Bladder wrack was covered with some organism, and the oxygen coming out of the plant was "imprisoned" into bubbles, creating beautiful pearls with the sunlight. I have dived in these waters many times but this was the first time I saw something like this.
