Reef Ghost, Was in a swift changing current at Barracuda Point Sipadan Island, guided myself in behind a bombie for some reprieve. I noticed some fire weed that was moving in a strange direction. Spotted these two Harlequin Ghost Pipe Fish.

These spine cheek anemone fish never want to sit still for the picture, they just move and move and my camera wouldn't focus on them. So I just focused on the anemone instead and waited for the fish to swim in front of my camera.

The other variety of Sea-Dragon, the Weedy Sea-Dragon. Not as attractive as the Leafy, but equally mesmerising to my wife Jill and special dive buddy. Taken shore diving at Lucky Bay, Australia with Nikon Coolpix 990 & Video Lite

Old blue eyes! Tiny hermit crab in Taiwan. These guys often get scooped up, ending up in nightmarkets with a paperclip glued to their backs while small children try to hook them out with a magnet on a rope for fun. Still, who am I to judge, right ??

Leafy Sea-Dragon found while shore diving at Lucky Bay, Western Australia. Taken with Nikon Coolpix 990 and Video Lite. Without the lights, the Leafy Sea-Dragon is almost indistinguishable from the weeds. I'd watch these until the air ran out!
Runner Up - worthy of note but not a medal winner - an equal 4th place if you like! Runner Up 2006

As I got closer and closer to this cute little pufferfish I was amazed how tame it was. I'm used to fish swimming away as soon as I get close, but not this one. He really liked his picture being taken with my Olympus C-5050 camera and Inon strobe.
