Solitary Islands, Coffs Harbour

[ReyeR]

Pics from weekend trip to Solitary Islands, Coffs Harbour. Coffs is about a six hour drive north from Sydney (Australia). It has a strange mix of temperate and tropical fish life. Diving was great. On the surface we also saw migrating humpback whales, one of which did a breach for us. Also a lone manta that got spooked and took off before we could get in the water.
Friendly batfish at the mooring:

Those are great!

I notice that ImageStation is now allowing posting of single photos. When did they start that?

It's allowed linking ever since I joined (maybe Mar 2003). They'll probably realise and stop it sometime in the future...

They used to allow single postings until last spring about this time. At that time there was a mad scramble for free photo hosting sites. I suppose they felt the loss and reconsidered!

Hello,

I have free hosting and unlimited space available because I do my own hosting.

As for the images I think on the first one a 90 degree rotation of the camera would have looked better.
