I found this Shot-headed Seahorse clinging to some weed at night. They use the weed to anchor themselves whilst they grab at zooplankton floating past in the water column. Shot with a Nikon D80, 60mm lens and 2 X ds-51 strobes.

So that's what a remora feels like!So that's what a remora feels like!

by Ric Mingramm

The Rip is the name given to that renowned stretch of water at the entrance to Port Phillip Bay, separating Points Lonsdale and Nepean. This area can be one of the most dangerous stretches of water on our continent, but at times can be so peaceful and calm that one could not envisage the hundreds of ships which have been lost in its vicinity.
