Swim through

Sony a7Rvi w Nauticam housing was used to capture the brilliant Egyptian Reef in Ras Mehammad National Park, Red Sea using ambient light without filter.

Entrance

I was free diving at home, in QLD Australia when I looked down and saw this, HUGE Ray below me swimming through a huge school of fish. They all parted around the huge male and he swam off and buried i=himself in the sand on the edge of the reef.

The tiger and the reef fish look like they are about to square off. I love marine predators and my wife and I were able to see this sigh and be lucky enough to capture this image.

This was my best encounter with a whale and his calf. I had chance to have in front of me 2 dolphins with the whales! Special and unique moment to me, will remember it for long.

Image was taken in Baa Atoll, Maldives at around 20m on a cloudy day.

Seal or golden retriever? This one solicited belly rubs and grabbed my hand with it's flipper when I stopped rubbing its belly, as if to say 'don't stop petting me!' just like a dog. Shot in New England, on Maine New Hampshire Border.
