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.

We prefer natural shots and don't want to encourage image manipulation but this is such a strong image from Mathew
Candy strip shrimp in anemone. San Juan Islands, Puget sound.
North Shore, Oahu Hawaii - turned strobe off for this one. Limited time to shoot.
Baleen Mouth.
This Gray Whale allowed me to scratch her tongue, then squirted water at me. Shot off the coast of Southern Baja, Mexico
This Clearfinned Lizardfish earned his meal. Taken in 4' of water, natural light.
Yesterdays dive at Haleiwa the Trench on the North Shore of Oahu. Shot at ~70’.
Curious baby Gray Whale.
This youngster was a bit confused during the southern migration and started going north. He came to us as though asking for directions.
Puffer fish in mouth of a grouper taken off Palm Beach on a night dive off MV Shearwater. Nikon D50 with 18-55 in Sea & Sea housing with Subtronic strobe.
I initially thought the markings to be some type of skin lesion, however after consulting a colleague of the White Tip Reef Foundation, he informed me these nasty looking marks on her gills and pecs are scars from mating bites from male sharks.
Our little friend invites me in to his house.
Hawaiian Bigeye shot with 300D, 55mm. A shot in the dark.
Today's dive. Rough surf...vis pretty good anyway. You just never know what's down under.
