I want to fly away from here...
Sydney's Pygmy Pipehorse Bare Island La Perouse NSW
Just a pineapple :D they are so skittish I attempted this shot many time with a wideangle. Tokina 10-17 @17
Love is: Holding tail, no matter what...
Schooling Old Wives Wool Bay Jetty South Australia
Sea Lion Port Lincoln South Australia
Is this my best side?? This guy was so still that anemones started to use it as support (look close on its lips)
White sea-horse and I mean it :D
shortlistedShortlisted!
Striped Anglerfish Clifton Gardens New South Wales
They rarely swim... but when they do they are awesome...
This fellow simply could not stands the noise of regs and swam away from divers as soon they they approach. it swims back and forth between 2 nearby pylons so I took this shot
White's Seahorse Clifton Gardens New South Wales
Whaat? they said that ghosts cannot reflect in mirrors... (in reality what looks alike water surface is the high reflecting sand in Chowder bay and they are a pair...)
Now I know why they are called white sea-horses... they glow white :D
Blue Swimming Crab Pt Hughes Jetty South Australia
Despite the appearance, the white background is not artificial. The water is so full of small algae that the strobe reflects almost entirely when angled. This shot is with 3 strobes to illuminate the subject too

Very impressive technique! White background with minimum post processing is very hard to achieve, especially while lighting up the subject so well.
Ceratosoma Brevicaudatum Pt Hughes Jetty South Australia
... and then she looked at me with big brown eyes and said: "you ain't seen nothing yet..." :D
Great Barrier Reef Far North Qld shot with Olympus tg3 while snorkelling so relaxing.
Swimming ghost. The female of the pair
Photo Bomber - i was trying to get a photo of the Swan Wreck but this little Globe fish had other ideas:)

Final RoundThrough to 2016 awards final round judging
"the dark knight" no PS to achieve the background I used a 3rd strobe to blow the water. shot in Clifton too much south for them how long they will stay around is not known...
Cuttlefish Pt Hughes Jetty South Australia
Shaw's Cowfish Pt Hughes Jetty South Australia
Hermit Crab Pt Hughes Jetty South Australia
Sydney Pigmy Pipehorse
Ornata Cowfish Pt Hughes Jetty South Australia
Ghost pipefishes are sometimes stranded by the current descending from the GBR to Sydney. Here they are shot in midwater with a very close aperture to just make their stunning color popping up...
