La Paz 2016 Photo Group Trip
With Bluewater Travel
Words & Pictures By Brent Durand
The Sea of Cortez holds a very special place in my heart because, well, it itself is a very special place. Armed with a GoPro Hero 5 and two I-Torch Venom 38 video lights, I flew down in late October for Bluewaters small group photo trip.
Amazing whale shark moment captured a with GoPro Hero 5
The beauty of this trip was the adventure itself - we camped under the stars for two nights, searched for and found hammerhead sharks, drove through mountain roads in pouring rain, and sampled local food at some of the best restaurants in town. This adventure attracted a great group of divers all looking to shoot unique photos and videos while experiencing the slow life of La Paz. After all, where else can you spend hours with sea lions, swim with whale sharks, dodge schools of fish being chased by birds, stare in awe at anxious signal blennies, night dive with hundreds of mobula rays, and play with some of the friendliest jawfish in the world. La Paz is the place where you can be motoring out in the boat, see dolphins and be in the water within 60 seconds.
Snack time! Captured with a GoPro Hero 5
We had all these adventures during the La Paz photo trip, plus several different photo and editing talks along the way. The two nights of glamping on Isla Espiritu Santo were very fun, with great hospitality and some incredible meals.
