Cleaner shrimp off Stewart Island, Burma

Thanks a lot Dee. Yes, I actually bought the housing and strobe in Singapore two days before going on the liveaboard. But I've made some Nikonos shots before. Digital is much easier. And having such a great strobe is very important for the colours - as you all know.

B y the way, that morning we were the first boat there so we could make the first dive with only 5 divers at the wreck :D

One time at the Thistlegorm, the water was so clear and still that we could see the wreck from the boat ...

I've had 6 dives at the Thistlegorm in the Red Sea (Egypt) and I find it very good each time. A 126,5 meters long 'war museum' full of material, lots of fish, strong current, great visibility, warm water ... Following this link you find a lot of information about it. Link to info on The...

Yes, I agree. Scuba diving from a boat is much easier. Especially when you live on it for several days Having the gear ready to strap on whenever you like and then just walk down or roll in - amazing ... shore diving is a lot more hassle.

Oh, he just pushed them out with a finger :out:

Have you seen this before? My dive guide Ekk opened his mouth near a 'cleaning station' and two shrimps entered his mouth :wacko:

You'd better keep your fingers away from this one: A zigzag oyster at The Pinnacle, Burma

I was very happy with Viking Liveaboards I've had a couple of liveaboards with the same company before (then known as Scandinavian Divers), but now with their new boat 'Viking of the Orient' it was amazing I took this photo while at anchor in Burma: OK, I see images are not allowed...

Thanks raxafarian - It was a memorable liveaboard :) Octopus, Similan Islands, Thailand Christmass tree worms, Thailand

The cuttlefish was attacked by a BIG grouper, approx. 1m15cm long. I saw the grouper with its wide open mouth, but the cuttlefish was gone - I think it got away. :whoa:

In January/February I went on a liveaboard from Phuket (Thailand) to Burma. On this thread I will show you a few of the 1200 shots I made. For still shots I use a Nikon Coolpix 995 with a wide angle in my Ikelite Digital housing supported by a Ikelite DS125 Substrobe. I also did video...

Hi fellow scuba divers I'm just back from a wonderful liveaboard from Phuket to Burma (Mergui Archipelago & the Burma Banks). Highly recommended!!! Lots of sharks (silvertip, whitetip, grey reef, nurse, guitar, leopard, ...), several mantas and lots of cuttlefish. I have 300 photos...

... so access to and from the water is very easy. And there's plenty of room for scuba gear and a compressor.

Have you ever considered the great combination of sailing and scuba diving? Do you prefer shore diving, daytrip diving or liveaboard diving?
