Strong current dive, but our litle friend really likes the spotlight and wanted to say hello!!
Eye of the Slug. I was very excited to find a couple of these Lumpy Sea Slugs on Oahu's North Shore.
This Catalina Wreck ex WW II, is located in Biak, Papua - Indonesia.
Racoon butterlies swarm the rocks for food.
Mark + a wild bottlenose dolphin. He took us down to 130 from where we met him an his school at 20 feet. Lots of fun, especially with no time in the chamber =)
'A GOOD DAY FOR FISHING' While not necessarily 'marine related' - nice inland water. NW British Columbia, Tweedsmuir Provincial Park - early morning on Crazy Bear Lake. D100; 18-80 Vivitar lens. Enjoy!
Originally, I only saw the tail of this White Mouth Moray. After finding the business end, I spent a while blinding him with my strobe. Three Tables, Haleiwa, Hawaii
We were watching each other for a while... I could actually watch his eyes follow me around while I was swimming. Stocky Hawkfish, taken at 3 Tables, Haliewa, Hawaii using a single strobe on a Nikon D70 in an Ikelite housing.
I call "him" Leo. He is a Black Volitan Lion fish in my aquarium. Yea, I know, that's not underwater, but it is a great picture. He is about 2-3 years old and almost full grown, about 12 inches long and 15 inches wide with fins.
Distracted. The DM on this dive was shooting video for the boat guests.
