Throwback to 2014 when baby diver Brian (13 total dives) hopped into the Blue Hole in Belize and watched as the sharks circled until one decided to dive straight down and disappear. That wasn't unsettling at all, nope nope nope. buff.ly/9sGUZTX #sharks #belize #bluehole #scubadiving #scuba 🦑 🦈

Kiluauea volcano in Hawaii is doing that thing it likes to do quite often (send molten lava flying very high into the air). www.youtube.com/live/HggWKlZ... #hawaii #volcano #eruption #lava #geology #sohotrightnow

This small rabbit lives near our shed and hopped out for a snack of grass in front of our strawberry patch. This one is about a third of the size of the adults we see around the yard. Captured with my OM-1 + 150-600mm telephoto #bunny #rabbit #wildlife #animalbaby #om1 #omsystem

I recently added a 150-600mm lens to my bag and took the opportunity to photograph this American Robin in my yard. This one seems to have had great success on the worm hunt! briangweber.com/featured/ear... #wildlife #birds #omsystem #om-1 #robin #worm #photography

I had a good dive yesterday, but nowhere near THIS good. Some of my friends had an incredible encounter with a basking shark on a shore dive in Rockport, Massachusetts! buff.ly/FP8G8Wy #baskingshark #shark #gentlegiant #NewEngland #coldWater #epic #scuba #scubadiving #wildlife 🦈 🦑

Subjects in the water column like this chameleon shrimp are often quite challenging with a macro lens like the M.Zuiko 60mm. The OM-1 autofocus picked up the subject and got the eyes in crisp focus. #underwaterphotography #shrimp #macro #NewEngland #coldwater #scuba #scubadiving #wildlife #om1 🦑 📷

Coryphella verrucosa nudibranch with a looming open barnacle. Can you spot the other macro beastie in the image? Captured with my Olympus OM-1 + 60mm macro lens #macro #underwaterphotography #scuba #scubadiving #nudibranch #olympus #nauticam #NewEngland #wildlife 🦑 📷

I captured some images of familiar dive spots as I was heading out of Boston toward Barcelona. The first image is Nahant, MA and the second image is Gloucester Breakwater and Cape Ann. Such a nice view! #travel #Nahant #CapeAnn #airtravel #pixel #sunset #flight #redeye #atlantic

This alleyway covered with colorful umbrellas was a fun, whimsical spot in Poble Espanyol in Barcelona, Spain. Prints: buff.ly/aj9QY2C #umbrella #travel #Barcelona #Spain #colorful #photography #fisheye #olympus #om1

White-breasted nuthatches are quite common around me, but I'm always entertained by the way they walk around every surface as if gravity doesn't matter. Olympus OM-1 + 150-600mm telephoto. Prints: buff.ly/dioufR2 #birds #nuthatch #tree #nature #birdphotography #photography #om1 🐦️

Sunrise on the USS Massachusetts in Fall River, MA. I had an overnight campout on the battleship with Cub Scouts and it was a lot of fun. We got to explore all three ships at Battleship Cove, learn some history, and send messages in Morse Code. #sunrise #battleship #navy #pixel #wwii #history 📷

Astro post! It's been a bit, but here's an image of a favorite subject I captured over the winter: Thor's Helmet Nebula. This object trails Orion in the night sky and is pretty low on my horizon. Print: buff.ly/TDQ9UCO Details: buff.ly/CFyjGhI #astrophotography #nebula #space #photography 📷 🔭

I took my fisheye lens for its first New England splash and the results did not disappoint! Giant nudis in a field of pink hydroids in Portsmouth, New Hampshire! #underwaterPhotography #coldWater #fisheye #wideAngle #olympus #om1 #nauticam #NewEngland #scuba #scubadiving #nudibranchs 📷 🦑

Happy crew!

Is it weird to be obsessed with a crater? Orientale is 😍 #Artemis #moon #farside #space #craters #NASA

You've probably already seen this image by now, but I have to join the party sharing it because it is quite simply one of the coolest images I have ever seen. #Artemis #earthrise #Earth #space #NASA #epic #moon

I paused the Artemis livestream yesterday and picked it back up this morning, so I'm mid-eclipse right now. Listening to the crew gush over the beauty of the moon is a wonderful break from all the nastiness going on down here on Earth. #Artemis #moon #NASA #space

LIVE NOW: No big deal, just some humans checking out the far side of the moon as they fly by. 🌝🚀 www.youtube.com/live/z-j1uxB... #NASA #moon #Artemis #Orion #space

Due to user error, my strobes weren't firing during my last dive. The test to avoid this sort of issue is simple and easy. I should do it and you should too! buff.ly/GBJVbam #underwaterphotography #fail #scubadiving #scuba #camera #strobes #blog

There are now 10 toilets in Space International Space Station: 4 Crew Dragon Docked at ISS: 1 Soyuz Docked at ISS: 1 Tiangong Space Station: 2 Shenzhou Docked at TSS: 1 Artemis II on way around Moon: 1 This will be the first time a toilet has left low earth orbit!

Went to Peirce Island in Portsmouth, NH for the nudibranch bonanza and it was 🔥🔥 I opted to make it challenging by forgetting my flash trigger, so I had to shoot with video lights instead of strobes (possible, but I NEVER do it on purpose) 😣 Pictures to follow!

I am now 4 dives into my fisheye lens journey, so I wrote down some things I've learned. If you had anything to add, definitely drop a comment below - I'm anxious to improve my skills! buff.ly/pVWWeQF #underwaterphotography #wideangle #fisheye #lens #photography #blog #olympus #om1 #nauticam

This is a blue chromis with an isopod attached. These critters will munch on whatever the fish eats and are a drag on the animal due to their large relative size. buff.ly/ICKEAQi #underwaterphotography #fish #Bahamas #isopod #parasite #behavior #olympus #om1 #nauticam 🦑 📷

I found this roughhead blenny sticking out of a coral head in the Bahamas. I really liked the vibrant yellow color. buff.ly/k3KeeRm #underwaterphotography #macro #fish #blenny #Bahamas #scuba #scubadiving #olympus #om1 #nauticam

Needed this one for the "planetary alignment" last month. I'm all for people looking up at the night sky, but let's keep their expectations reasonable.

Checking in for day 1 of Boston Sea Rovers!

Peirce Island in New Hampshire was positively overflowing with nudibranchs last week. The fisheye lens really shows off the abundance of hydroids (nudi food!) and great visibility. Prints: buff.ly/0t6h5l9 #nudibranchs #underwaterphotography #NewEngland #fisheye #photography #olympus #om1 🦑 📷

My January dive recap is live. I only managed two dives, but they were both with my new OM-1 photo rig! Check the blog for the recap and (most importantly) pictures. blog.briangweber.com/2026-01-dives/ #underwaterphotography #macro #nudibranchs #olympus #om1 #scuba #scubadiving #blog #photography

A little preview from my dive at Peirce Island in Portsmouth, NH yesterday. Easily saw hundreds of nudibranchs. More pictures to come! Captured with my Olympus OM-1 + 8mm fisheye. #scuba #scubadiving #underwaterphotography #NewEngland #nudibranchs #olympus #om1 📷 🦑

🌓🌎🌞 <-- lunar eclipse 
🌎🌓🌞 <-- solar eclipse 
🌎🌞🌗 <-- apocalypse

PSA: You've probably heard about the Total Lunar Eclipse happening tonight/tomorrow morning. Note the altitude because while it is technically true that totality is visible from Boston, it happens at an altitude of 1.9º above the horizon. buff.ly/e8BV2bz #lunareclipse #space #science

I had seen Red-tipped Sea Goddess nudibranchs only once or twice before, but I saw probably 10 of them on this trip to the Bahamas. Captured with my Olympus OM-1 + 60mm macro + AOI +20 diopter Prints: buff.ly/Hd7lQco #nudibranchs #underwaterphotography #macro #sand #olympus #om1 #nauticam 🦑 📷

We got hit with yet another large storm, this time with wet, heavy snow and lots of wind! I don't know exactly how much we got due to drifting and a bunch of snow hanging around from the last large storm, but it was a pile. #snow #timelapse #winter #NewEngland #Massachusetts #gopro

I recently put together a new underwater photo rig featuring an Olympus OM-1 and fancy Nauticam housing, so I wrote a post about it! Happy to answer any questions you might have. buff.ly/9GQdNIl #underwaterphotography #gear #olympus #om1 #mirrorless #photography #blog 📷 🦑

Blackcap basslets are common in the Caribbean, especially on walls and overhangs. They often swim upside down as if the overhang was the ground. I found this one swimming right side up in the Bahamas. Print: buff.ly/A3FTvHK #fish #underwaterphotography #bahamas #darkbackground #om1 #olympus 🦑 📷

This plane wreck is about 20 feet deep and jam-packed with fish and critters, so it's a nice dive stop on a Bahamas trip. With 9 divers about to splash, I jumped in first and kicked over to get clean shots. Prints: buff.ly/EbIX8KW #underwaterphotography #wideangle #fish #wrecks #olympus #om1 📷 🦑
