Sea Rovers Dive Bali

Once again the dread Captain Slackbeard strikes as I catch up with the Brethrens photo's. Night diving 'Mucky Pirates Bay' this time. Carefully does it lads thats a hoard of razorfish. One false move and there'll have ya all mincemeat like in a flash. Oh No, they spotted us! Swim away, swim away...AAAAAaaaaaggh! Have they gone? Good. And here is another frogfish. A face only a mother could love. A full winged lionfish giving us the classic fish tail shot. Pretty wings though. And finally a really nice Nudibranch. And thus endeth another nice lot of images from the brethren. The Captain

The latest Mucky Pirates Bay photos. Been playing with Photoshop for this first one, getting an interesting sort of woodblock effect. Using the cutout feature and then a second layer high pass with threshold adjustment, you get this nice art print. Mantis shrimp playing peak a boo. That green algae behind him is all over the Mucky Pirates Bay at the moment, brought with it a couple of very interesting nudibranch though, which typically I only ever find when I don't have the camera with me :-( I like this pic! A very nice young lionfish Filefish hanging by one of our moorings. The Captain

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 ;-) The Captain

Regina (another new member of the honorary Sea Rovers brethren) sent me these pictures. Rather nice turtle shots from Menjangan Island, during her trip last month with Wayan (see photo below) Lionfish resting on a sponge Wayan & Greg, Chillin' Menjangan Style Turtley Awesome Dude. The Captain
