A few photo's from today... sadly I forgot my gloves and focussing was difficult as my fingers were too numb to half-depress the shutter reliably!

Given this and that I skipped the night dive not much to share, despite the excitement on the beach that someone had found a small unicorn scorpionfish that had only been observed 3 times before, and was un-named (new to science!)

So, first up we found a couple of pipefishes - I think the first is a bent stick pipefish but don't have any idea about the second...

Then then were a couple of scorpionfish - possibly the prettiest and the ugliest in the family?!

Finally a nice lionfish, soft corals and cute little yellow fish.

That's me done for 2007 - just squeezed out the century and Christmas parties/going back to the UK mean it's all over until 2008 - let me be the first to wish all the Zen divers a Happy Christmas!

and happy holidays to you as well. My last 2007 dive will be osezaki next week - hopefully I'll be lucky and see some pipe fish too (last weekend I saw 2 juvenile lion fish, but no pipe fish)
and I am happy to say that as of early December I celebrated my 1 year anniversary of diving by receiving my DM c-card (yay)
 
Congratulations!
