On my way to Tulamben right now! I have my prescription mask so I should be able to see something of interest. And I'll definitely let the board know.
Yesterday was shrimp city!
Started out with 4 kinds at a cleaning station, then the biggest pair of Harlequin Shrimp I've seen, then a new to me soft coral shrimp (sorry don't have I'd book, but they live on the soft coral that looks like a flower and opens and closes), then on to ladybug shrimp, then for the closing act, a tunicate shrimp living inside the tunicate. Absolutely fantastic! A first for me and i nearly pissed myself. ( ok i did but its ok in a wetsuit) And for the visually challenged, an eagle ray, barracuda, and big eye travally. It is the most crowded I've seen it here in Tulamben, on one site there was a quite frustrating line of photographers at the Harlequins, they should have those numbers you used to get at the butcher so you can go off and shoot something else, then when your # is called your turn! I'm loving my new SL-1, I'm able to get much better shots of the super tiny critters with a 60mm and +6 diopter. Next up I think is a trip to Japanese wreck in just a few short hours, now if I could get to sleep, I'm like a kid on Chistmas eve.
