Magnificent Gorgonocéphale ! G10 + inon strobe

This happens, if you have your 60mm macro lens prepared for a photo dive : Always the big buddies are coming by, then ;-) Anyway: I hope, that's the right category - close up shot of a common sea turtle ( caretta caretta ).

A diver explores seabed

Face to face

Phylangia colony ( sorry, I've found only the latin name for it ). From the diveplace "Canyon" ( left side of the wall at 12,1 meter depht ) in Kas/Antalya - Summer 2008. Thanks for looking at it :-)
Shortlisted!

Well hidden octopus !

"Dutchess of York", a shipwreck near Kalkan in Turkey. Since a lot got broken there, I decided to shoot just a small part and some nice blue with a diver in a distance. Depht was 47 meter.

Flabelina Afinis

Smaller than 1 cm (0,4 inch) ... but so nice.

I unfortunetly don't have much to say about this...I just like it ;-)

Horozbina. A 5 cm small buddy, who is usually extremly "nervous" and therefore difficult to shoot. If you are looking close enough, there are even in the mediterranean nice motives to find ;-)

Baby barracudas in an late afternoon dive.

The "Skydiver". Swimming with the camera below this small squid made the photo possible. I took it in 2009 in Kas-Antalya (Turkey)

the Lady in Red. Another result of an "marathon-like" model uw photo-session ;-)

It was a great underwater photo session, when I worked with my turkish girlfriend Seda on freediving wide angle photos. While I was scubadiving, she was freediving. On later afternoon she managed to "bend" herself around the sun....a amazing moment

Bad visibility this day ... it was just possible to take macro pictures :-)
