This little guy from tonight's night dive was a real treat to play with. I believe it is
Rhynchocinetes australis but it could also be
Rhynchocinetes kuiteri, so please drop me a note if you know for sure. For other underwater adventurers, calling it a shrimp will do nicely.
The water is getting colder, but that simply means fewer people in the water and less silt in front of the lens. As much as I love taking people diving, there is nothing like having a little bit of space when wielding a camera.
A night dive is always a great way to prove to all the 'sensible' onlookers that the world is full of people doing crazy things. So, who'd actually want to be an onlooker on a beautiful calm moonlit Edithburgh night? Yes I agree too, the world is full of people doing crazy things!
Until the next post, take care out there, keep diving ( if that's what you do! ) ...Robert
