Thanks folks! I was using a small camera without strobe (Canon G9) to reduce drag while free diving. There are a lot of nice corals in the Red Sea to be sure. Hope to nail some unusual shark feeding behavior shots this weekend. See you on Monday.

A few more, these are from reefs off Hurghada. Despite being in the north, more
crowed and developed area, the corals look very good. At least once you move away from the normal tie up spot.

The Reef. Takes me back, when I was a kid, impeccable reefs, overseas anyway, were commonplace. Not so much anymore, still you can see some mighty fine healthy corals in places here.
