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.

After the mating of the Sepia in May and June, juvenile can be found about six weeks later. This one is about 1-2cm long, the mussel in the rear side give some indication about the size.

The Aequipecten opercularis shows his eyes only when you come with less light, and not to close. When there is any danger he will close himself (herself) and you see only the outside. These picture is made in the Oosterschelde, with less visibility.
Under the Sealandbridge the air of the divers makes a mirror to the ceiling. You get weird effects when anemones stick out of the mirror.

a well spotted reflection
My first Sepiola Atlantica. And it was trying to hide for me.
Our waters can be grey, but these heremite lobsters make it colourful.
"Greater pipefish" (Syngnathus acus) with Nikon D300, Nikkor 105mm and Close Up Lens.
Sepia´s at the start of mating. Some seconds later and they will be right ahead each other.
Trinchesia concinna in the Oosterschelde. Not that colourfull as it's hot water family.
Limacia clavigera at the Oosterschelde. They can be find only some weeks of the year on Electra pilosa. So last week I took a day of, and succeeded to find them. Colour in cold water.

Olympus E410 camera
12-42 mm lens
no cropping
Trinchesia gymnota, another colourfull specie from our grey and green waters.
Anemone in the mist
The 2nd picture of my mirror experiment in the Oosterschelde. Anemone in the air mirror.
The air bubbles at the ceiling of the pilaster of the “Seelandbridge” work as a mirror. You can get weird effects. Here an anemone seen in the mirror.
The Lissotriton vulgaris lives only for breeding in the water. During this time, he warms up at a stone or something else in the neighbourhood of the water. These picture I made on a bicycle road near my house, were I find sometimes 20 on one evening
Father & son? Also the male of the Enophrys bubalis takes care of the eggs. Taken with my Olympus E330 with 50mm macro lens.
These Cyclopterus lumpus protects his eggs in the background. He will stay here till the juvenile fishes come out.
Liparis liparis comes every winter to put there eggs into the Haliclona oculata
Eathing Crab. It looks like he loves worms.....
In motion
Cyclopterus lumpus male. In his neigbourhood we found his eggs on 2 places. The male is protecting them till the juvenile come out, 4-8 weeks later. These picture was made on a depth of 10 meters, usualy it is hard to make a natural light picture .
The Myoxocephalus scorpius male is protecting the eggs. He will defend and clean them for about 5 weeks. When he saw his own face in my dome port, he attacked it immediately….
Chrysaora hysoscella. When I tell people I like jellyfish they think I am crazy....
What do you think........
found in the Oosterschelde, D200
