Western Rock Lobster
Taken at a depth of 15.5 metres using an Olympus C-750UZ. Visibility was unusual for the season...15 metres! Also saw a wobbegong that had a dangling hook with a trailing fishing line, protruding from the upper portion of it's mouth...pity. Photocomp August '04 - Open
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.

Mates
Quite a usual sight in the waters of the Marmion Marine Reserve, Western Australia. McCulloch's scalyfin and Western blue devil "hanging out" together.
Short-tailed Nudibranch
Apparently this species (Ceratosoma brevicaudatum) is endemic to the south western coast of WA. This is only the second time I've ever seen one!! The nudibranch was captured with an Olympus C-750UZ with built-in flash. Location was Quinn's Reef just north of Mindarie, WA. Depth was a little over 5 metres. Photocomp January '05 - Open
Harlequin Fish (Othos dentex)
A very inquisitive and fairly placid fish. Seemed to be content to peer at me as keenly as I peered at it! Taken with an Olympus C-750UZ and in built flash. Location was off of Sorrento Quay, WA. Photocomp January '05 - Open
Ceratosoma brevicaudatum

Chromodoris westraliensis
From Mindarie, Perth. West Australian nudibranch. Taken at 21 metres in a location known as "Barnes Secret Spot". Olympus C-750 Ultra Zoom with internal Flash.
The Survivor!
This solitary cuttlefish was in a sorry state. It was obvious from the lack of tentacles and scarring on its head, back and sides, that it had escaped the clutches of a predator. Despite this, it was not threatened being photographed and allowed my buddy and me to spend quite some time with it. This image was captured with an Olympus C-750UZ with inbuilt flash. Depth, 15.5 metres on Blue Devil Reef close to Mindarie, WA. Photocomp January '05 - Open
