I just got back from a scuba trip in the Turks and Caicos islands. We lived on a diving boat all week long and the diving is great...sharks on almost every dive. You should visit if you dive. Stay on the Aggressor II live-a-board...it rocks and crew is amazing.

I flashed this poor puffer about 7 times but he still seemed to love me and want to be friends.

A big ass crab about 80 feet down on a wall. Amazing he was able to get down there.

Eazym- Glad you enjoy the photos. World under the surface is certainly a world people don't see and often never even think about it. There is so much going on under water...worlds which go from the macro to the micro and amaze me each dive I take. The sad thing is that many of the plant and animals under there won't be around in 25-30 years because society is so very ignorant to ocean/aquatic life. =(

Ivy- Close to home?oh yeah...I see Jamaica... I'm dying to get to Jamaica.


Here are some additional photos...

Not sure if anyone beside two ppl are looking at these but if you two are stilll out there here are a few more. =)

I find the color combinations in coral is just perfect. You can find so many shades, tints and tones and yet somehow it all works in hormony.
