It's a Whale Shark (Appropriately named)
Rare Encounter! Great Shot I love it! ssra30

I am headed to Thailand in Feb. Hope to bring back a similar Pic. This is the perfect way to use a diver in the photo, you would never be able to tell how large the Whale shark was if there were no diver in the photo.

If you go to Richeliue Rock next February, I think you will have a chance. For some reason, this year whale sharks came a bit late, more like half way through April both in the Andaman Sea (Similan, Richeliue, Phi Phi) and Gulf of Thailand (Koh Tao).

Here's a couple. Not the greatest, bet thematically correct anyway

They look pretty cool, some sort of jellyfish

The last one is not jellyfush. They are Pelagic Tunicates. They make several different formations when forming their communities.

That was taken at Bonaire, near 1,000 steps or whatever that site is called as I recal.

Dee's corrrect. They aren't really jellies. That was the only time I have ever seen them that massed together before. I have seen them in much smaller groups, but usually only one or 2 at a time.

My favorite way to spend my SIT.
