Isn't it "Jacques" cleaning up "Nemo"?
That was the instant thought that sprang to mind when I saw that photo!

editing in: No, my daughter says, this isn't "Nemo", for "Nemo"'s got THREE white stripes, not only one. Um, OK. But I was close, wasn't I?

You doughter is right.

Oooh...you've made me al enthusiastic to buy me a ticket and go shooting at my local aquarium. They've got a new one at the zoo in Rotterdam near where I live, with a big watertunnel and all kinds of dark crannies and nooks with aquaria...I might just do this.

Beautiful, I love the first one with the fireworm. Saw that particular type of species during a dive in Turkish waters near Kaç when I was there. The instructor warned me not to touch it

And the one with the Blue Button polyps is simply amazing.

Lyanna: we are waiting for your photos from local aquarium

At Kaş there are lots of diving places, and yes your instructor is right, most of them are toxic.

YAY! Cool photos! Congrats. Unfortunatelly I don'r have an aquarium in my city

hmm I think I'll dive into aquarium of my fish

Somewhere I had my underwater photostaken in Croatia last year, but I have to scan them. In the near future I'll show them to you but they are far far behind yours
