a non-diver might think this is a giant turtle judging by the diver but we know the scale is misleading due to wide angle lens perspective distortion

A friendly turtle followed us on a number of dives off Tenerife, very inquisitive and liked to look at its reflection in my dome port. Lens Tokina 10-17, ikelite housing, DS125 strobe, EOS 20d, RAW, camera manual setting, strobe half power.
While diving off Corfu my dive buddy found this little octopus. The octopus decided to hitch a ride on his wrist, how surreal. I took this with a EOS 20d, format RAW, lighting single DS125 ikelite strobe on half power, 20mm prime canon lens f2.8 USM.

Hermit crab, taken on a night dive with only internal flash in Puerto del Carmen, Lanzarote
Arlequin crab
Orange Starfish with Tubular Anemone. I am very happy with this picture, it´s from my 1st dive with a digital camara. I used internal flash on soft and got as low an angle as I could.
While diving at 20meters, I caught movement in the top corner of my vision. It was an young Electric ray that swam overhead giving a semi silhouette to the photo, used camara flash on soft to catch some details

Thor amboinensis, the "sexy shrimp", resting on an anemone
Just have to wait until the Green turtle swims in front of the sun and close to my dome port...easy!
