Couple of late afternoon photo’s from Close Encounters reef in Pemuteran. Water was a bit hazy so lighting wasn’t so great. Still couple of nice pics.
Barrel Sponge on Close Encounter more southern slope
Peter getting a photo (still waiting for some of Peter’s pics to post. Hint 😉
Oriental Sweetlips posing for the camera
Milky water reefscape on the top of Close Encounters, Plenty of Sargent-majors around protecting their eggs.
Soft coral, just liked the pattern.

Been incredibly busy the last few weeks with high season in full swing, so not much time to take new pics. However I did get some nice shots early in July while night diving Mucky Pirates Bay.
A not cunningly disquised Tiger Sole
Sand Eel, usually you only ever see their heads pocking out of a hole in the sand. But this night we got to follow him as he hunted.
Teeny Weeny Lionfish
One of my favourite night time critters, a Spider Decorator Crab.
And last but by no means least a very pretty Anemone.
More can of course be found in the Sea Rovers face book page where the reef photo albums keep expanding.
Now Back to Diving 😉

Another day of cold water (25C brrr..) and mucky vis in Secret Bay with dive buddy Kimmy More. No Frogfish this time but I did get a classic sea snake picture as it headed for the surface to get a breathe of fresh air. Mmm maybe I should wash my wetsuit 🙂
All in all two very long and one very lost (due to lousy vis, honest:-)dives. With plenty of stuff to be seen.

Yesterday was a good day to pray
Sabine and Katrin hanging out at the temple gates.
Nice little Nudi rests in contemplation at the base of Buddha statue.
Hairy lobster or crab, I forget.
Vis was so so, with lots of large particles in the water but otherwise a great dive as usual.
More photo’s can be found on the new Facebook page
Where I’m setting up albums for each of the divesites.
Also a good way for the Sea Rovers Brethren to keep in touch with each other and share diving stuff, photos etc.

Make yourselves depressed by looking at our Pemuteran reefscape while your working on the office computer.
Enjoy
