This blog contains photos, mainly taken during diving around Perth and other parts of Western Australia, with occasional other locations thrown in. This header photograph was taken during a trip to Sipadan Island off the coast of Borneo. It shows a Grey Reef Shark disappearing into the gloom, which drops to around 600 metres deep - I was at around 30 metres!!

Western Blue Devil
A very common sight on most dives on Three Mile Reef is the Western Blue Devil. They are quite solitary and rarely seem to move from the over-hangs under the reef. They are a spectacularly coloured and pose well for photographs!
When you pull the picture in close, the markings on this WBD look like the dots on an Aboriginal painting.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful example of a blue devil! Nicely captured, and thanks for sharing.
