Corals at night

Photo taken during the night dive on Rottnest Island (Western Australia). Camera used was Sea and Sea MX 5, film used was Fuji 400A. Photocomp February '05 - Open

This solitary cuttlefish was in a sorry state. It was obvious from the lack of tentacles and scarring on its head, back and sides, that it had escaped the clutches of a predator. Despite this, it was not threatened being photographed and allowed my buddy and me to spend quite some time with it. This image was captured with an Olympus C-750UZ with inbuilt flash. Depth, 15.5 metres on Blue Devil Reef close to Mindarie, WA. Photocomp January '05 - Open

Estuary Catfish

by Eamon

This Estuary Catfish is attempting to catch a crayfish for lunch, my thoughts exactly, though I thought it best not to fight over it though. Taken in 8-18m deep water about 2km North East of Rottnest Island, WA on 22 January 2005. Camera used is an Olympus C750 with an Olympus PT017 underwater housing. Photocomp January '05 - Novice

Glow Fish

by Eamon

These Hulafish are very bright naturally, the glow is further enhanced by the reflection from the flash. Taken in 8-18m deep water about 2km North East of Rottnest Island WA on 22 January 2005. Camera used is an Olympus C750 with an Olympus PT017 underwater housing. Photocomp Janaury '05 - Open

Harlequin Fish (Othos dentex)

by Trurina Cook

A very inquisitive and fairly placid fish. Seemed to be content to peer at me as keenly as I peered at it! Taken with an Olympus C-750UZ and in built flash. Location was off of Sorrento Quay, WA. Photocomp January '05 - Open

Short-tailed Nudibranch

by Trurina Cook

Apparently this species (Ceratosoma brevicaudatum) is endemic to the south western coast of WA. This is only the second time I've ever seen one!! The nudibranch was captured with an Olympus C-750UZ with built-in flash. Location was Quinn's Reef just north of Mindarie, WA. Depth was a little over 5 metres. Photocomp January '05 - Open
