G'day to you!

G'day to you!

Visibility was poor and surge incredible! Dive buddy managed to hang on at one point and had a very close encounter with an octopus in the foreground! Both eye-balled each other for a short while! Taken with a MX5-11 and YS-20A strobe. Photocomp October '04 - Open

Brown-spotted Wrasse

Brown-spotted Wrasse

Taken at a depth of 12 meters off of Scarborough, Perth, WA. Difficult to photograph as they tend to move about amongst the weed quickly and do not like to pose! Camera used was a C-750UZ with inbuilt flash.

Jellyfish with Trailing Tentacles

Jellyfish with Trailing Tentacles

Taken ascending from Scarborough Ledge (off Scarborough near Perth, WA) on a morning dive. Have no idea what the species is, however, the tentacles trailed for quite a distance! Captured with an Olympus UZ C-750. Depth was a mere 5 metres. Found the subject quite interesting.
