Quiet Beauty
Sometimes we need to stop and appreciate the beauty of a quiet scene like this: a broken pier silhouetted against the background of the vast ocean.
United Nemos!
All for one and one for all! The three musketeers unite to protect their home against a giantess. Anemonefish are very territorial and they protect their sea anemone homes by aggresively chasing away anything that gets too close.
Schooling Tropical Fish
Heniochus acuminatus, commonly called pennant coralfish or longfin bannerfish, looks very similar to schooling bannerfish (Heniochus diphreutes) and Moorish idol (Zanclus cornutus). This image was taken in the Banda Sea, Indonesia.
Thimble Jellies
This aggregation of thimble jellyfish (Linuche unguiculata) was spotted during our dive in the Banda Sea, Indonesia. They look cute, but you'd better be careful when you are around them. An accidental contact with these jellyfish causes very itchy rash that appears hours after exposure.
Everything's Frozen!
Posing next to a pile of bodies? No, this is what happened to our drysuits when we took them off after diving at Silfra in ?Iceland. The dive was amazing and relaxing, but getting to and from the dive site was quite a challenge. The wind was howling and nearly blew some of the smaller divers off the trail. By the time we got back to the vans and took the suits off, they were frozen stiff. It looked like there were invisible divers in the suits!
