Undisclosed

   Cyprus  Ionian Sea
This is a site that Turtle Divers at Sempati Hotel took us to on several occasions. I prefer not to disclose the location in fear that fishermen will go after the groupers. As you can tell from this photo, they are very tame and unafraid of divers.

south male

   Maldives  Indian Ocean
we 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.

Fantasy Reef, Hawaii Kai, Oahu, Hawaii

   United States  Pacific
Always 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.

Shoots at French Cay

Located due south of Providenciales, French Cay offers untouched diving with large, healthy coral and sponge life. Near Rock N Roll, another site that lies along the wall off the western tip of French Cay. The Southern Cays, including French Cay, is the name given to the islands and rocks that lie on the Caicos Bank to the south, some 15 miles southeast of West Caicos. These cays are uninhabited, unspoiled and extremely beautiful as little has changed since Richard Owen's visit on the HMS Blossom in 1829. Approximately a 60 minute boat ride out of Provo.

RAS KATY,

   Egypt  Red Sea
This 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!!!!
