Welcome Tropical Storm Fred

A rainy day here in Sosua and with Tropical Storm Fred expected to hit us this afternoon, the powers that be have shut down all water activity for today, so no diving!  Gives me a chance to update my blog and clean the cameras though!

The diving the last month has been great and it is great to see old friends coming back to enjoy our warm clear waters.  Had great dives with Tom from California and Taurean and Emily from New York as well as all my friends from Germany!  Love diving with fellow photographers!

The macro life right now is fantastic here in our bay.  All types of tiny frogfish, including the Hairy Frogfish pictured in the slideshow up above.  These little guys look like a piece of seaweed on the sand but get up close and you can see the eyes and the tiny feet!  Trying to get a decent backlit photo of one of them but no such luck - yet!

A passing turtle waved "Hi" at Deep Wall a few weeks ago and really was just plain lucky to get a photo of it!  Sometimes, that is all you need.

Seahorses!  We have a LOT of seahorses in our waters right now and some of these are getting BIG, well about 4 or 5 inches tall.  These creatures are usually very shy and tend to turn away from the camera so pretty happy to finally be able to capture some decent shots of these amazing creatures.

It's been a great month of diving here with my friends at Divecenter Merlin.  Check their website out!  www.divecenter-merlin.com

Thanks again to EXP vision for the great masks.  Really loving these.  EXP VISION DIRECT on Amazon.

Enjoy the summer, stay safe and please keep our oceans healthy
