Amazing stuff Mike - as an aside, terrible to hear of the loss of life of divers in Egypt.

Lovely set, thank you for sharing your work, Mike

Just awesome, superb work.

I've not seen a Peacock or Praying Mantis for a while, they have one heck of a punch with those front claws. They release them faster than some bullets travel, captive ones have been known to break aquarium glass.

Beautiful creatures though.

Suburb set Mike, lovely colours, especially the Mantis shrimp.
And I see the Moray even smiled for the camera.

Thanks Roger, and yes, its awful. Hurricane was a well regarded boat as well, no idea what's gone on there but very sad

Great work.

You're right Dale, they are stunning. I really wanted one sat on the eggs but the only one we found with a brood was inside the nest and not up for a photoshoot

Thanks Chris - Morays have this fearsome reputation because of their fangs but they're actually quite approachable with due respect

I had one stick its head out of a break water, and show me its teeth some years ago.
I apologised for waking it up and beat a hasty retreat

Very nice I have often wondered if I would hate or love diving - I don't think I will get the chance (lots of family to visit in the wrong places for diving).
Keep posting them.
