This is a photo of a flamboyant cuttlefish. You can't see in the photo but this little fella is actually pregnant. She is quite more friendly than most I've encountered underwater. She appears to enjoy the light flashes

Taken with an Olympus TG4. I saw this nudibranch as it was finishing to lay eggs while we were on a dive in Anilao.

This is a photo of a nudibranchia, joruna funebris. The black and white contrast of this nudi makes it very attractive even just to observe underwater. Taken in Dauin, Negros Oriental, Philippines.

This is a photo of a pygmy seahorse hanging out on a sea fan trunk. A very cute little fella. Taken in Anilao, Batangas, Philippines.

Threesome. Found these three head slugs getting busy mating

This is a photo of a nudibranch, Hypselodoris Bullocki. A combination of clean white, purple and yellow-orange crown made this nudibranch a favourite of many photographers. Taken in Anilao, Batangas, Philippines.

I was lucky to see this nudibranch before other divers from our group found it. I had plenty of time to watch and shoot while the subject posed for the shot.
