I really love clownfish, especcially when they are in a nice-coloured anemone. Did you know that clownfish co-exist with the anomone? Other predators get stung by the anemone, except for the clownfish, they in turn, keep the anemone clean!

Aplysia parvula/seahare

One of the cutest Bargibanti Pygmy Seahorses I have ever seen! I just love these fragile but wonderful creatures <3

My love for Manta Rays is endless. Especially this day I'll never forget. Diving in shallow water with 7 Mobula alfredi feeding and circling us for about 60 minutes. Graceful and amazing animals <3

Manta Rays are by far my favourite animal, so this was a very special and personal moment with this beauty <3

The Harlequin Shrimp is my favourite crustacean so far <3
They are just amazing animals and if you spend some time with them they seem to warm up and let you be part of their world - just amazing.

How different species under water cooperate always leaves me stunned when I see them working together. Helping each other can be so beautiful <3

Hippocampus denise. Just at Alam Batu Housereef

Everyone loves clownfish <3 I was able to spent nearly 10 minutes with these curious guys until I finally managed to get the picture I wanted

master of the camuflage

After a few weeks in an area with a lot of sea turtles I learned how to approach these gentle animals. I was able to interact with them and also figure out when to get close for a picture and when not - this was my most meaningful encounter <3

This Ornate Ghost Pipefish fooled me with it's perfect camouflage. While looking for Barbibanti Pygmi Seahorses in the same sea fan it took me quite a while to see it. Lovely creatures.
