An amateur, but a long love of photography. A recent move to digital has seen the love ‘blossom’, and a greater enjoyment in the field. I will try most forms of photography, and gain both knowledge and fun out of the experimentation. Using a Nikon D300 and D7000, with a range of lenses, and filters. I hope you enjoy the views as much as I’ve enjoyed taking them.

My gosh I’ve never seen one of these beauties before….absolutely gorgeous
Hi Lyn. Yes, there were very common over there, the hardest part was getting a good shot of them – beautiful clear water, but getting one out in the light like this was the tricky part. Thanks for the comment, and the fave. Cheers, Baz

Thanks Kym, and for the fave as well. Yes, it’s a beautiful place, and wish I could go back there! One day hopefully, but I love the place and the people. It’s my idea of paradise.

Stunning colour and clarity! :-))
superb shot Barry, well done to avoid reflections, amazing creatures sea stars (Echinoderms are my all time favourite animals!)
Thanks heaps Suellen – is that the marine speciality coming out? lol. I just love all marine life – much to Sharna’s disgust – she draws the lines with some of them – although this was a fave of hers.
