Description

We have spent most of this dive season again on Kata Beach because there is just so much out there to see and lack of other divers is also a bonus.

This Goby image is from a 4 hour solo dive where I probably did not go over 8 meters at anytime as there was a ton of little macro critters.

If you are experienced with photographing things on Sea Fans/Sea Pens, than you will know just how fun it is to do super macro on a constantly moving and constantly rotating Sea Pen, with a critter that will move at the slightest disturbance such as a Goby.

Thankfully this little guy managed to settle himself for a moment and I was able to snap this shot. I will be honest I wasn’t expecting much from this series of photos, but when I saw them on the computer I realized I could see all the way into his brain and through it apparently. Normally the Goby’s have spots or some coloring preventing a 100% transparent body like this, but it is pretty cool.

I’m not sure what he is thinking at this point, but it was probably something like “who is this dude and why is he trying to cook me with giant video lights”, or it was just “food, hide, food”.

Enjoy :)
