Komodo Trip Report

[dirtfarmer]

tunicate shrimp, lady bugs, ghost shrimp
I hate you all!! too small for my old eyes
hope to see them on Dec 2016
don't expect much about taking pics,

Magnifying glass for your eyes and a diopter for the camera!
I think my guide Wayan likes stuff pea sized and smaller, I think he owns stock in Inon and Subsee or gets kickbacks from them in the very least. Or he really wants to bruise my ego and make me feel grossly inadequate with my own spotting ability. If we saw a Mola Mola he would be looking for a tiny parasite on it. After my first trip here I new I needed a diopter to make him and me happy with my photos.
About the biggest thing he's shown me this trip is a pair of harlequin shrimp.

Great night or dawn dive. Probably one of best night dives I ever had- encountered enormous moray, sleeping Maori Wrasse..Humpheads ...etc Night dive was guide and I on entire large wreck.


Komodo was tops too...

I find your tunicate shrimp photo really good.
.

I think this photo is better than my first and I got my best skeleton shrimp to date, I love its color and its baby belly.
Now I move on to Komodo for some photo subjects a bit larger.
