NIGHT DIVE . . . 21 MAY 2016
The dive site map for DIVE #3 and the NIGHT DIVE (same place). It's best to do a night dive at a place you have seen in the day. You know the geography of the reef; easier to stay away from dead ends in the coral where you can get banged around and cut up. There were LOTS of NUDIBRANCHES on this trip. There were also some large rays and sharks, but MOSTLY it was close up work, especially for me as my underwater flash stopped working on DIVE #1. The video light works best at night. In daytime it's not really strong enough to overcome daylight which makes a blue cast to most of the shots.
An UNKNOWN Nudibranch, according to the Reef Critter Guide on the ship
A fish I've not been able to identify as yet Orangutan crab (Achaeus japonicus) Granulated sea star, cushion sea star (Choriaster granulatus) Blue linckia starfish, blue sea star (Linckia laevigata) 10 pm - time for my ear and me to go to bed.
