Conditions: Surface Swell making entry difficult on the notorius big black boulders.

Visibilty: 10m

Details: Another dive on the liberty wreck, this time with the macro lens. Happy to see a cool anglerfish, pygmy seahorse, a wierd scorpionfish and lots of small porcelain crabs. This proved to be the last dive in Bali, since the guides weren’t keen for a night dive with the rough conditions. One day, 4 dives…not enough to whet the appetite.

Details: After a long haul, i made it up to Tulamben for a rushed few dives before heading to Sri Lanka. The weather wasn’t ideal and the conditions meant that i wouldn’t get as many dives as i would have liked in the area. First dive up though was on the fabled Liberty Wreck in the morning. Straight up a school of Bumpheads swam past and then off over the drop-off over the wreck. A nice start. It took me a while to get into the groove and trying to keep up with a guide and other divers is never condusive to a great photography dive, but it was nice to finally dive this wreck.
