2024 has been the year of the bait ball in Bonaire.  This tired turtle is looking for a place to rest, oblivious of the cyclone of big eye scan just meters away.  Shot with a Nikon Z8/Nauticam housing/INON z330 strobes.

Not only that this is a good shot with superb exposure, it also wakes us all up and reminds us what we are diving and shooting for. A very clear message in your photo, Roland....and this makes it a well deserved winner-shot :-)

"OCEAN DIVER"
Slipper lobster in the wreck of the Ocean Diver. Difficult to find the right category for this pic. Maybe better to put it in "wide angle - wrecks"? smile

A shot that gives the "topside" category new value & meaning, Roland !
"SAD MOMENT"
Just in front where I live, this whale was driven ashore today. Pumped up by the gases in the body is now waiting for his last ride. Tomorrow morning they bring him to open water, and with a blasting he will end as fish food.

"BY - THE - WIND - SAILOR"
it's called this small ( about 4cm ), beautiful jellyfish ( lat. Velella velella ). Above water you can see the sail very well and you know why this jelly has that name. wink
