Blue ring octopuss. It was our last dive in PNG and my both strobes failed before seeing it. I had to go up, borrow another set and go down again hoping to find him again. He was very kind though and waited for me.

Clown fish in 2m of water, 105mm with twin flash guns.
Pygmy seahorse! Cool disguise or what!
Spotted Eagle Cruisin in the shallow grass beds in Duck Key. I took this just wading in about 3 ft of water with no flash... I love the way the sun shines in through the water.
