What does an Oceanographer Look Like?

This is totally awesome. I just discovered it today. It's a film titled as my subject header, but what I'm excited about is this-- it's filmed entirely on location of where I work. This is my marine field station, where I go to work daily. The red-roofed building you see is my office building, the boat you see is what I look at daily. The waters, the green marsh, the views-- it's all what I look at, every day I go to work.

I just wanted to share this video with everyone, so you now what it's like to be a marine biologist. It's indescribably rewarding, it's exhilaratingly close to nature, it's a breath of fresh air (har har) every day I go to work. Click appropriate speed:

Low-res Quicktime (4 Meg)

What do you think? Pretty neat, huh!
