I was lucky enough to spend nearly an hour swimming alongside this juvenille green turtle (Chelonia mydas) on the fringing reef at Lady Elliott Island in the Southern part of the Great Barrier Reef. Lady Elliott is a beautiful island that is home to a wide variety of marine life and seabirds. Best of all the resort is reasonably priced fairly basic accommodation unlike most of the rest of the island resorts in the GBR. If you get the chance then Lady Elliott is well worth the trip. During my week long visit I would have seen more than >10 green turtles, hatchlings on the beach, sharks, rays, gourpers and a myriad of other reef fish. The coral reef on the other side of the island is spactacular with huge plate (Acropora sp.) corals everywhere. It is truly magic.
I did this piece very quickly . It was drawn at A3 size. Scanned in and colored at 600dpi. It’s full of detail and includes dome of my favorite things in the world around me. I’ve entered it into a local exhibition competition. There was no theme other than giving designers a chance to express themselves anyway they want to. The greatest and most perfect designs are all around us. The animals, the plants, the mountains…everything that is naturally formed. These are the things I admire the most. The beauty of fauna and flora, the dead or alive. Perfect and not by design…it just is. Play and Worship

When the “Best of Blue” challenge was summoned, I inmediately thought of the ocean; the deep, blue ocean that surrounds my native and beloved small island. And the ocean reminded me of a close friend, who loves the sea, its coral reefs, and, coincidentally.. the color blue. / So, this image became a sort of representation of watercoloured memories and good feelings. / Thanks for stopping by.
The predatory Red Lionfish is one of a number of similar species widely distributed in the Indo-Pacific. The spines are venomous. Lionfish have recently been released in Florida and the species is now showing up in the Eastern Atlantic and Caribbean.

On a group photo shoot last night with six other members of the Mt Gambier and Limestone Coast camera Groups. Travelled to Carpenters Rocks and to the Lighthouse looking over Red Rock Bay. With an extremely low tide the green growth was exposed and created a bed of colour across the rocks. Canon 400D, 18 – 55 lens with Hoya CIR Polarising filter. Thanks to Globalphotos for the name change!

Taken on Mabul Island, Borneo. A magic place! We stayed in ‘huts’ (luxurious) on the reef – you could look over your balcony and see the reef below in all its beauty. It rained on our last morning there – but who cares! Beautiful even in the rain. View more of my landscapes by going to: / Landscape

Sydney, Long Reef is a protected marine reserve with rock shelves that extend out about 200m into the sea. We were lucky to have a beautiful cloud and still water reflecting of it. Shot with Cokin Z-Pro Tobacco Filter to give it a mood. The normal image tho looks good are just to wash out and unattractive, so i strap a filter on. Gum Boots is essential for early Sydney Sea Side shoot – unless you want wan mild frostbite at the end of the morning…eiei. Mind you i usually go shoe less in Summer…ahhaha…feel the water. 0.04 sec (1/25) | f/6.3 | 10 mm | ISO: 100 | Bias: 1 +EV | Shade WB / www.hangingpixels.com

Sipadan Island off the east coast of Borneo, one of the top 5 dive spots in the world. I was fortunate to visit there in 2007 and I have been revisiting my photos of that amazing trip. This was on the boat trip home to Mabul Island after an unforgettable day of snorkeling the coral ree, swimming with its unique inhabitants, including green turtles. / Taken with the Nikon D200 I had at the time with my trusty Nikkor 12-24 wide angle lens.

Heart Reef © Vicki Ferrari A scan of an original print, taken using a Minolta SLR, back in the early 1990’s. / Heart Reef is located north of Hamilton Island, on the Great Barrier Reef, in North Queensland, Australia. It was named Heart Reef because, and obviously, it looks like a heart! / This photograph was taken from one of my regular chopper rides up on the island. I never got sick of flying in choppers, or seeing the amazing reef from the air! When you are at the Whitsundays, well worth visiting the Reef by helicopter! The view is amazing!
