Maldives Indian Oceanat a cleaning station for mantas, we wre very lucky on our first dive to have these udewater 747's swim around us. This picture captures their size in realtion to the group of divers watching them, and makes us feel pretty small in the process

Maldives Indian Oceanwe were just starting to chill out after the 2 morning dives offf of our liveaboard dive boat in the maldives, when all of a sudden we heard the shout "whalesharkey, whalesharkey". We grabbed our mask snorkel and fins and jumped in. There were several other boats int he area and it seemed everyone had converged on this whale shark. One of the things Cathy Vhurch had taughtme was not to swim linear with marine animals, but in arcs. I separated from the pack andparalleled the whale shark, watching his pectoral fins. When I saw him dip his left pec fin I know he would be coming in my direction. I froze in the water, just barely breathing and when he approached, I was rewarded with this shot.

United States PacificAlways a favorite, Fantasy Reef is an East-West running reef off of Hawaii Kai and is routinely visited by some of the dive boats staging out of Koko Marina. Turtles are almost always present, and there are a couple of nice swim-throughs, White-tip Reef Sharks are common, in fact the last time we dove it there were three babies (about 2 ft each) under one of the ledges. If you have a sharp eye you may be able to find some Striped Pipefish. We've also had encounters with Eagle Rays and schools of Reef Squid.

Egypt Red SeaThis shot was taken at a depth of between 0-20 metres with a viz of 20+ mtrs, the dive was from a Day Boat with Camel divers in Naama Bay. This is the second time I have been to Naama Bay, twice in October, last year and I would recommend a 3-5 mm wet-suit / semi dry. This is a definate must for all divers who love photography at whatever depth!!!!
