Belly Up
Caught mid barrel roll, this manta gave a good flash of it's belly, allowing the individual to be identified. Hanifaru Bay, Baa Atoll, Maldives.

I found this spectacular red & white spotted pygmy goby while diving off South Ari Atoll in the Maldives. I was lucky to capture this normally timid fish before it darted back into a coral crevasse.

mauritius 2023
Was peeking under a rock and spotted this little fellow. Shot taken in Mauritius at Trou aux Biches.
This lionfish was resting at the brim of Seventh heaven Thila's reef. Located in the South Ari Atoll of the Maldives, it usually features strong currents and so lionfish sometimes perch between the rocks and corals to hide from the current.
The picture was taken in Mauritius during a wreck dive. I saw this fish peacefully lying on the side of the wreck and seem to be admiring the view. This scene was so pure and relaxing.
