Having a lovely time in Bonaire and can see a future trip my be on the cards, too :) Haven't been shooting nearly as many photos as I thought I would, but getting some neat things each dive. Enough talking, here's me

Thanks, All! Bonaire was beautiful. Still haven't gone through all my images but working on it here and there :)

@CC - Flamingo tongue (not a nudi, it has a shell) and flutemouth/trumpetfish :)

Couldn't resist taking photos of virtually every arrowcrab I saw! Am trying to share only the ones that have a little something extra - like this guy eating a shrimp

Thanks, monet!

Super awesome special sighting of an eagle ray - was told very rare to see and I spent several minutes with it.

Ahmazing photo's! :thumbsup: The Eagle Ray looks so majestic.

I think i would want to touch everything. It all looks so tactile and i would be fascinated and want to see how it feels! Which is a little weird and probably totally not on! :laugh:

@mini - same as always: Canon 40D in Subal housing with Inon strobes :) I suppose one day I'll change over but so far the 40D keeps on tickin!

@melbomb - yeah, it's a pretty amazing place, the underwater world. But you're right - touching is a definite NO NO...kinda like you wouldn't go up and pat an unknown dog or any wild animal on land ;)

A few more...

Wow! Your photography blows me away! It's just brilliant I keep going back to look at the shots over DVD over! Really really love the eagle ray and my god those morays are frightening looking! And I love the shots of the fishes in the sponges, that's so cool..

Thanks so much for sharing here! :)
