Default New Dive Pictures

All the following pictures were taken while diving last week in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
The water temp was 86 F, visibility 60-80 ft+ with the reefs full of sea life.
I love it there!
Thanks for looking, enjoy.

First let's start with some Stone Fish - True Masters of Disguise.






When diving with these guys around one must be careful where you put your hands.

NUDIBRANCHES





Wow that is one homely Trigger fish.



Spotted Puffer caught during a siesta.


Morish Idols

It was often hard to get good pictures because there were fish fry everywhere and they would get in the way.

Here is some babies hanging around the protective spines of some urchins


Misc corals


Small school of wrasses on a reef head.



A few Feather Dusters


When I first saw Gorgonians like this I thought it was interesting they seemed to have stripes



But upon closer inspection they were just swarmed with Brittle Stars


More pix to come later.
