This was my first time seeing the ever popular ORANG UTAN CRAB. It was chilling in the bubble corals. Because they are very hairy fellas it also makes our cameras very hard to focus on them. I'm still happy I got a shot of it & seeing it was unbelievable!

Beautiful CROCODILE FISH EYES. One of my fav's & I always lookout for them.

The very very Dangerous STONE FISH. This was my first time spotting one. They are so scary! Stone fishes are also in the Top 10 list of most dangerous things to human.

I don't know how our lovely Thai Dive master spotted this but she I have to say was very sharp! Its a COCKATOO WASHFISH. Its about 1cm. Seriously this can be mistaken for planktons!!!

The very colourful PEACOCK MANTIS SHRIMP. They also have a very strong punch. Divers please be aware that they punch can break an Aquarium glass & the their punch travels at the speed of Hand Gun Bullet fired from a 9mm hand gun. Their punch is so fast that it also sends shock waves after the punch has been delivered. So underwater photographers please don't get so close aight!
