I shot this cuttle fish in Jersey, UK. I spent the most intriguing dive with it for over an hour, it was almost "who was watching who" - I think this shot sums up the dive!

This 5 milimeter big Pygmy Seehorse i have shot in Bali, Indonesia in Tulamben. It was a great walldive and at 28 meter there he was. It was very dark but a flash is your best friend at this depth. I used a Sony DSC F-717 camera with a Ikelite housing .
