Ok – so if you couldn’t tell from the post title, I’m going to do a couple days of shrimp posts… and this is one I actually can positively identify. These are Durban Hingebeak Shrimp. They are a shrimp that I’ve always wanted to see…

Nudibranch mating habits are weird… First, all nudibranchs are hermaphrodites (which means they are both male and female at the same time) – so when nudis mate, they both have the chance to get “pregnant”. I say chance because apparently some nudibranchs can decide whether…
While I was in Jiwa Damai, I helped work on a project to modernize beekeeping in Bali. I created a couple videos for the project, check them out.
It is my mom’s birthday, so since I am not there to celebrate with her, I figured I’d send some flower photos.
I rarely take shots like this underwater (I generally don’t do a great job with them), and I honestly don’t even remember taking this one… but it turned out quite nice if I do say so myself.

A couple more snakes I found while wandering around Jiwa Damai after dark…
Ok – it seems I have an abundance of nudibranch photos, so here’s an encore performance (and these are all from the first trip to Amed, I still have a nice assortment from the second shorter visit).
Ok – just as I did a three day jumping spider set, let’s do a three day nudibranch set. I don’t have IDs on most of these, but you probably expected that…. just enjoy the beautiful colors and patterns.
Up until just recently, I’ve only ever been able to photograph the little cuttlefish (I think they’re juvenile broadclubs, but I’m not 100% sure without my ID books). Actually, in all the dives I’ve done, I’ve only seen maybe 6 or 7 cuttlefish total –…
These cool guys aren’t too common on the reefs, but Iluh managed to spot a handful of them while we were diving. They tend to sit propped up on their pectoral fins and will gently rock back and forth with the current – much like…
