hloc SG Hi.... just came back from my Perhentain dive trip. Perhentain island is really 2 island close together...... Know as Perhentain Big & small. Located on the East coast of Malaysia, in the state of Terengganu. We were staying at the 'BIG' island..... As you can see.... nice white sandy beaches + clear waters...... Sadly, we were there too ealy into the diving season..... the visibility under water is not good..... on the avg only 5-7 metres. Compair to Similan (thailand) or Manado (indoneasia) visibility of 25-40 metres.... it suxs. Also not much good stuff to see. Hope you guys/gals enjoy the photos. A type of Coral Clam. The clam is close up.... False Clown Anemonfish...... very easy to find around here. 2 differencve type of soft Coral. Close-up shot of a Crown-Of-Thorns Starfish. The 'thorns' are really soft and not hard at all..... skin like in feeling. Close-up shot of the lips of a Clam. More update coming......
hloc SG Update..... 2 difference type of hard coral Sea Urchin.... always liked the Blue glowing ring thingy when take close-up shots. Some type of Sand Goby fish.... Female Tomato Anemonefish.... More corals..... sorry.... not such a good trip. Boring photos. Damselfish hiding inside the 3rd pics. More update later.....
imppie SG Nice pictures but maybe its time to push your capabilities 1 notch higher. Concentrating on compositions and behavoir of marine life.. Instead ,of just point and shoot. Great sets… anyways
hloc SG Hahaha.... point & shot is all i good at. Anyway, the DM was being an A*shole.... kept swimming even though we have 3 person using camera..... even loss a diver twice..... hard to slowly take my time...
hloc SG False Clown Anemonefish.... the anemone is surround by hard coral.... Small little Hermit Crab..... Sea Cucumber.... nicer looking type.... some could be real ugly Surpise surpise..... A Zebra Lionfish. Never saw one in Malaysia waters.... Some type of soft coral..... curled up for protection.... I think. A type of sea anemone.... from close-up looks like soft grass on a windy day. More to pis come
imppie SG That’s cos u need proper setup if you’re doing photography trips.. to them ur group are just doing a dive trip not photo trip. So next time u plan one.. try telling ur operator or organizers, your plan…
hloc SG A nice shot of a Blue-Spotted Ribbontail Ray.... common around Malaysia waters. 3 photos of Sleeping Nurse Shark.... at dive site ''Temple Of The Sea"... Female Tomato Anemonefish inside this strangely 'Orange' Anemone.... just 1 of this "orange' Anemone in the whole area.... The male version of the Tomato Anemonefish...... More update tomorr....
