Manta feeding in Hanu Faru Lagoon. Taken in natural light aginst the sun. The water was full of plankton, so not a very clear shot. However I kind of like it and the experience was great.

A night dive in the Swan River "Perth" using a Canon 50 D with a 60mm lens in a Aquatica housing and a Z240 Inon strobe. Went looking for seahorses, ended up seeing eye to eye and playing with a Eagle Ray.

I like the colours of the purple closed anemone. Using photoshop I have made the surroundings in black and white to enhance the colours of the anemone and Clownfish.

A West Australian seahorse under the Ammo Jetty, south of Perth WA. This little guy was hiding behind some weed but I got a shot when he popped out. My first dive with my new twin Inon Z240's and my fifth dive with my new Nikon D300.
