Dont know if the pic will work but here is 1 ( hopefully).
We had a great holiday, But i was a bit worred about taking the camera in with negative entrys so left it behind on most dives:(
We saw our first Hammerhead ,threashers, silkys ,reef and a white tip alas no pics.
I would like to have any tips on negative entry please?
I have a few more pics but to be honest i am not that happy with any of them
Thanks Ken

Seems like everything has those Golden Travelly jacks around them in the Red Sea! Did you see the famous friendly Dugong? Nice close up of the remoras!

Thanks for the reply Jonathan.
How did you know that, that turtle is found in the same territory as the Dugong:confused: .
Unfortunately we never saw the dugong, but to tell the truth,when we found the turtle, i took a few quick shots, then let the other 2 divers in our small group have a go, intending to take some more shots my self.
To my horror a group of about a dozen divers came, and totaly destroyed the viz.:mad:
If we had found the dugong god knows what would have happend:rolleyes:
Thanks Ken

Just a lucky guess. I heard about a friendly Dugong in the Red Sea and I have seen some pics of him/her and so I was hoping for more pics! The Red Sea isn't that big, right? If you go there, you are bound to find that Dugong.;)

BTW, where is that Dugong supposed to be?

I think the Red Sea is big enough to keep me busy for the rest of my life time:)

There are several dugongs all called Denis LOL, that live in the Southern Red Sea near Marsa Alam. They graze exclusively on the sea grass like cows.
