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.

nice 'wish you were here' shot Rick
Mating of Nudibranch
2 beautifull Nudibranchs in Yap Micronesia.Some of the Nudibranchs were more colorfull than the fish.Always the best subjects for posing for pictures.
We were underwater at about 45ft. at a cleaning station waiting for what seemed forever. Then after 40 minutes out of the blue comes this huge Manta flying gracefully overhead. This was the first Manta we had ever seen and Wow! what a beauty.
Couple partially out of the hole to check out the "goodies" brought by my spotter or they are simply just infuriated with him.

This is a shy sea horse that was trying hard not to be noticed by me. I was about to finish my dive when I noticed it hiding near a small rock,
