Check This Out by Marcus Grant
One of my divers checks out a Fried Egg Jellyfish. We have had a bit of an invasion of these this year. They are harmless and do not sting. Some if them were as big as trash can lids.

The Month of November Avatar
By John Brotheridge
I have just moved the following line up to the top as some folk are missing the point and meaning of ’ Activities’ .......”There must be somebody or something actually being active. Pics of static situations, however good, will be regretfully rejected.
Here are a few ideas to get you started: rowing, sailing, powerboat racing, swimming, diving & scuba diving, water polo, water skiing, surfing, wind surfing, kite boarding, para-gliding, canoeing & kayaking, white water sports etc.
Special consideration should be given to a pic before submitting it under the ‘activities’ banner. There must be somebody actually being active. Pics of static situations, however good, will be regretfully rejected.
Please submit any other closely related ideas not mentioned above; we like surprises. Nature shots (ducks etc) would be inappropriate for submission.
We would only like to see your best photos and paintings each displaying a high degree of creativity.
