If you don’t like abortions ignore them like you do school shootings.

Jovial Monk,

You have a lot of skill in presenting interesting stuff in this forum.

It is a pity you spoil the ambience, of the display of these particular pics, with a moment of crude suggestive innuendo.

True, but Booby really does bat for the other side tho. However, i will remove what you didn’t like.

However, thank you for the compliment and hope you post a bit more in here. I am trying to find out if spiders, particularly huntsmen, are declining or thriving.

Dragonflies are scarce these days as are ladybirds—have anything to say about that? Love to hear it!

This is the best photo of all I reckon:

It is a larval spotted ribbonfish.

More info on blackwater photography:

The Art of Blackwater Photography

An Expert's Perspective on a Newly Emerging Art Form


The idea of back rolling into the open ocean at night, may not be a fun idea for the uninitiated. In fact, open ocean diving at any time of the day sends chills up a diver's spine. The 360-degree environment can be intimidating to say the least, but once a diver’s skills have been mastered, exploring the open ocean is limitless.

Blackwater diving is reaching a fever pitch with underwater photographers worldwide. What started out as just a few who dared to venture into the open ocean at night, is rapidly becoming the next big thing for underwater photography.

In this short article, I will try to introduce some of the key dive skills needed for blackwater diving as well as photo tips for capturing blackwater images - how to find the subjects, how to approach them, and the special gear needed to do it.

Well, those interested can read the rest of the article.

Some more blackwater photography photos:

...

...
The immortal jellyfish (Oceania armata)


...
The gastropod Prosobranchia veliger (Oceania armata)


...
Larval Tonguefish, 5 miles off West Beach Florida


There are more and you should look them up.

Anybody know what “gastropod” means?
