More nudists

Aloha girl!

well I took this picture on the San Pedro. The nudis were crawling across the wreck and the blue is actually water that you can see thru a hole in the metal

Very nice

I gotta ask, what is that blue that the Trembling Nudis are crawling out of?!?

Thanks marpacifica, Jetwrench, Dee and Yoda

Cool pictures Chris and Seabat

Chris, I love how close you got on those!!!
I am really starting to like the nudis......especially the double entendres associated with them!

Thanks Penny
Here is the gear I use

Best purchase I have made over the last six months is an Epoque 2X Macro Filter. Its brilliant for getting that close and closer, you just have to be wary of your Depth Of Field, its only about half an inch, very hard if there is any swell or surge going.

Cheers
Chris

I enjoyed your website too, Chris. Thanks!! Wow, a half inch?? I would only be in focus by shear luck even if I were on solid rock dry land!!

I think my next Cozumel trip I'll try a disposable camera for starters. But I WON'T be posting anything.

I'll just take stare jealously at everyone else's!!! I'll get there eventually.

In my last trip to Little Cayman, everyone got obsessed with finding different kinds of nudi's. Once you go nudi, you can't go back. It's very addicting.

I'd like to become addicted to nudis.....but just what do they DO?

On my recent Cozumel trip, the divemaster picked up an orange sponge at one point and showed it to me. At first I couldn't figure out why it was significant, then noticed a tiny dark worm crawling on it. It didn't look too interesting, but I shot a quick picture anyway. I forgot to ask him about it after the dive.

That evening I downloaded my pictures to my laptop, and discovered that this was actually a colorful nudibranch. Unfortunately it wasn't in focus so the picture isn't worth looking at, but I'm pretty sure it was a painted elysia, one of the most attractive nudibranchs in the Humann caribbean creature book.

Next next couple of days I kept looking for more of them. Didn't find that kind, though I did discover several ornate elysias. Now I'm always on the lookout for nudis. And I've got a macro lens on order so that I can get better pics.
