It was a pleasure to attend #MIW2024 miw2024.org in Monterey, USA!
Before, I had processed ROV video & identified bottlenose dolphins & measured colour of propagules off photographs. This is my 2nd workshop involving marine imagery.
I look forward to using some of these techniques in the future!

I finally got my MED-A3/SDV-BS & ROC-M certifications! SVOP is next month.
I learned a lot AND got to watch the cold water video from my time at Bamfield MSC for at least the 4th time in my life!
My favourite part: 23:38 "to join his hypothermic partner, Antoine"
