Aussie Diving June 16-30

When you copy and paste from the SB gallery you need to remove the thumbs/ portion of the code after you paste it into a message I figured that out the other day when mine suddenly started posting small. I changed yours for you

BTW - resizing your images to 650 -900 pixels on the longest dimension gives the viewer a good size to see and appreciate while still keeping the files small enough for slow loads and the images fit on most screens.

yay, can finally see one!! Lovely!

I had another RDO today and we slipped out for one long dive inside Exmouth Gulf on Bundegi Reef. The visibility was good and there was not a lot of current until the tide turned. The water was the coldest I've dived in up here on Ningaloo, a bone chilling 21°C.

The highligt of the dive for me was finding a couple of seasnakes trying to make babies. He was very interested, but she didn't seem to keen on the idea at all. Here's a few shots of them at it:

Give us a kiss.

Can we have some privacy?

Let's make love!

interesting maybe I should try that.. I haven't been able to post from the gallery... just use the thumbnail thing and recently started using photobucket.:blinking:

Hi gudge.. nice shots... don't know why but when your post first loaded the pics wheren't there then I posted my message and when it reloaded I saw your shots. Talk about be in the right place at the right time hmm?

Gudge - that last one's great

My computer read 22C on yesterday's dive and I'm seriously considering buying a dry suit (for only the 6th year in a row...I go through this every year!) I just am too lazy to do the research

Here are a couple of mine...have to say I didn't get too creative coz every time I'd try to get into position water would trickle down my back and I figured I didn't need the shot that badly

Tangled sea snakes

Canon 40D, Canon 60mm macro, Subal housing & port, Inon strobes

I haven't been able to post from the gallery... just use the thumbnail thing and recently started using photobucket.

I usually use photobucket now instead of SB Gallery - it's just easier and faster really.

Gudge, I agree with Alcina ... that last shot is great

I really like the nudi and the box fish Alcina.

22C ... would love to see that ... we had 16C today and 1-3m Viz!!

yep but what he didn't tell you is WHY we dived! Someone discribed the dive they had just completed as being like diving in 16C Milk!..... nobody was horribly motivated ... so we flipped a coin:shocked2:

Guess what? It was like diving in 16C Milk. I will post a few pics in a bit here.

Great shots Alcina... I especially like the last one... I just like the lines and movement of the snakes ... to me that is a brilliant shot!
