We had a great dive this day. The visibility was excellent, the water was warm and there was marine life in abundance. At the end of the dive we could swim around under the boat at our leisure to see if we could find anything cool. At first i almost swam right over this guy since he had bleached himself white against the sand. Luckily i did see him and settled down on the sand near him to see what would happen.

This was my favourite and still one of my favourite pictures to date. Perfect seas, good vis and great subjects. Any underwater photographers dream.
