Just playing around with the new Olympus point & shoot. Went out to a place where a few of my mother colonies were collected.

Some weird 3 foot long sea slug... eeewww!

Not Bleached. just one of the lame color SPS we have in Hawaii.

Coraline shot...

There are some coral heads here the size of a SUV.

Hey Kevin
Thanks for sharing

Coral Heads the size of SUV and 3' Sea Slugs.
Makes my tanks seem boring.

Snuffleupagus!?
I would hate to see what you could find, if you were really looking.

Have you ever mad a Night Dive ?

Very nice pics. It's interesting to see no anthias on a Pacific reef. Have you found any echinophyllia corals during your outings?

As far as i know there is no echinophyllia in Hawaii. I was only free diving yesterday, so i was no deeper than 5 feet. Most Hawaiian Anthias are very rarely seen above 100 feet.


Thanks all for the kind words.

Nice, thanks for sharing! It's always nice to see the fish and corals out in their natural environment.

WOW! Very nice pics! Thanks for sharing. I have to go diving on a reef at least once before I die. You guys/girls in the hobby that get the opportunity to dive are so fortunate to view in its natural habitat what we only get to see in our glass boxes filled with water. I am truly jealous.

What is that in the second picture down? Is that some type of worm? Looks like a bristle worm w/o the bristles.

Very nice pics! I use to live in HI, but have never dove on that side of Oahu. Dove off the big island, Maui, Lanai, and Kauai. If I ever get back, I will definately dive that side. Thanks for sharing
