Zebra's







Striped Ass

I got a question for you. How do Zebra's actually evade the wild cats in Africa especially with their stripes being so obvious? This is not a trick question.

Sea Otters


These fellas are actually very cute. I must say that they can be damn noisy at night or even towards evening. They actually do respond to you if you make similar sounds. Did you know that sea otters have the thickest fur / hair in the world.

Tomatos


I honestly thought these tomatos were fake. Its very real.

Meow


I waited at least 10 minutes or more for this shot of the tiger. Myself, ATSY & other tourist spend quite some time admiring this fella because he came right up to the glass in front of us and chilled for a bit. All of us tourist also took this opportunity to appreciate that moment because these fellas don't always show themselves at night.

Owls


If you look at the left picture the owl back is facing us and he's also facing us. I sometimes wonder if they get neck cramps.

NIKE Expo Clearance Sale


This was the line to get into the hall for the NIKE clearance sale. We had to wait for an hour to get in eventhough it was well organized.

Route 6 - Roof / BONUS

















With the Nikon DSLR camera you can see that at the beginning of route six I'm actually blur in the picture. As I move along the route you can see that I slowly appear clearer. Thanks to ATSY photography skills, you can see the transition.
Well I could have done a lot better as always. I just need to somehow try not to get nervous so that I can read the route carefully. Mental strength is way more important than physical I'd say.
There's gonna be more competitions ahead so will keep participating to overcome this thing called Nervousness!

Route 5

This is the other route which I didn't get the bonus. I should have but guess I didn't read the route carefully. Its all good nevertheless.

Harlequin Shrimp


The Harlequin Shrimp is now officially my favorite of all the micro marine life. Does this picture look like I just got back from some muck diving? Hehe! Just take some time to admire their colors. This is a different color from the previous picture. These awesome shrimps are often seen during muck diving. I have not dived at Lembeh. I know I need to dive there soon to see these magnificent shrimps because its really nothing like being able to see them in the open sea. I will make sure I get some micro shots of them like what you see here. I had to take loads of pictures of these shrimps coz I never expected to see them for the first time in an aquarium. This was a much appreciated moment. Feels so unreal!

Harlequin Shrimp



This Harlequin shrimp actually changed skin in front of us. I don't think I'll ever get to see this again especially in the ocean. This was indeed a rare moment.

Gracie The Dugong


Gracie is the one of the Underwater World's highlights. These are very cute creatures I must say. Gracie also has lotsa character which you can often witness during your visit there.
