I took several hundred photos of our snorkeling experience in the Great Barrier Reef off Michaelmas Cay.
The water was VERY warm and the color extraordinary!
Jerry and I spent 4 hours with our faces in the water and came out very wrinkled!
I don't know the name of this fish. It looks transparent but it's just reflection of the underwater color.
There were several dozen of these guys swimming in circles around me!
Glad they weren't sharks!
My husband saw a quite large white tipped reef shark cruise by...
no encounter...just cruisin'.
This is one of the many species of Parrot Fish in these waters.
This guy was so much prettier than this image reveals.
He is a lovely yellow dotted with teal spots on his body and stripes on his tail.
Awesome color...
she is invading my territory!
I rented a very nice Canon underwater camera for A$50!
I must say...I have got to get my own!
I took a WHOLE lot of photos...just couldn't stop!
