This shot was taken during this years annual sardine migration. I had removed my strobes due to the backscatter and forgot to add weight, i was sat on the surface whilst my friends were seeing an awesome ball below, i was lucky to nail this shot.

this shot of a wall of fish was taken at the Busselton jetty, which is a dive site close to where I live in Western Australia. I try to dive here once per year as it is a good easy dive and there are usually plenty of fish as this shot indicates!
