It's cold outside: time to look at tropical dive photos!

I went on a couple of trips in 2008: Bonaire and Bahamas. Here are some of my favourite shots from the trips. Feel free to comment on how I can improve them. Thanks!

Nice ones, Natalie! That's a very picturesque wreck in the second shot (with the grunts). Where is that? -Clay

Thanks, Clay. That shot was taken on one of the shallow wrecks in the Bahamas, but I'm not sure which wreck it was, exactly.

Natalie they are nice!

Specially I liked these big eyes...red colour is impressive UW. Also these pink head anemones is great.

It is the "Thunder Ball Wreck" near Nassau! It is the frame work used for the Russian Fulker Bomber in the opening of the Movie by the same name! It has been there since 1968 and the skin has rotted away leaving just the framework! It is a great night dive and has wonderful growth on it! Good job!

[Papa Bear]

The Haitian Wreck is also just off Nassau in about 65ft. It was used as an escape boat for refugees and they burned it so they could not be taken back on it!

A wreck called "Bahama Mama" very close to the Thunder Ball wreck!

The warm Bligh Waters of Fiji at the beginning of our winter!

It is hard to beat the colors in warm places!

Thanks Jukka! I like the colours in those photos too. :)

Papa Bear, according to my dive log, the wreck in the first and second shots is the Miami Rita. I was on a Blackbeard's trip out of Freeport and we went towards Bimini.

Natalie, beautiful shots. I especially like the very first and the very last ones!

Thanks, Jonathan! :)

Funny, I have been on the Miami wreck a number of times and nothing in those photos look likes it, but you should know where you were! ;) Was it near Sand Key? It is also a very cool dive!
