This shot was taken in Ahmed in Bali while diving on the Wall Divesite in June 2019.

Yellow-banded Pipefish - Tulamben Bali.

These shots were taken in June 2019 on a trip to Tulamben in Bali. I was there for a few days to experience diving on the Liberty ship-wreck and visited a variety of dive sites locally.

 

Soft Corals at Tulamben Bali.

Just a few shots of soft corals taken while diving at Tulamben in Bali.

Orangebanded Coralfish

This shot was taken at Steep Point, the most westerly point on the Australian mainland situated around 800 Km north of Perth, Western Australia. I was on a fishing trip and after having lines snapped by sharks, decided to go down and have a look. No sharks around but some nice reef and a few fish.

Gemini Wreck - Mindarie Western Australia

The Gemini Wreck is a purpose sunk diving wreck 9 kilotmeres off the coast north west of Mindarie in Western Australia. It lies upside down, 32 metres deep on a sandy bottom and was sunk in 1993 by local diving enthusiasts.

Teira Batfish

 Fairly uncommon this far south.

 Happy diver on the safety stop!

 Clear conditions on the safety stop.

White-Barred Boxfish

These are cute little fish which we see regularly on Three Mile Reef at Mindarie. The first shot is the juvenile and the second is what it grows into - a great change of colour. It's amazing how fast they swim , apparently using only their tails and the rear fins.

Red Firefish or Lionfish

The Red Firefish or more often called Lionfish is becoming more common in Perth waters probably due to increasing sea temperatures. Their southern limit used to be around 400Km further north but we are seeing them regularly now. This shot was taken on Three Mile reef about 7km north west of Mindarie Marina which is situated about 30Km north of Perth CBD.
