After the four compulsory dives, it's time for the more fun electives. Of course I've chosen Photography as mine but have also asked to do Underwater Naturalist so I can at least identify some of what I'm seeing and photographing. We've also moved to Saxon Reef which seems more abundant in marine life. My camera steams up half way through the dive so I'm disappointed I don't manage to capture the White Tip Reef Shark ominously poised on the sand. The camera also has a red filter which restored the true colours of the reef (I think red is the first colour in the spectrum that's absorbed by water).
