Finally finished scanning in the slide pictures.

Thanks for all the encouraging comments.

Barbara it was good to meet you, Dean, Max and Bridgette - I have already acquired another Seadog TShirt ready for the Maldives in just over 8 weeks. We will be back in Bonaire 2004 for the coral spawning.

Beverly and Tom enjoy your trips. DSAO.

Dot & Dan are you out there? - This was the "Blue" Scorpion Fish that appeared red viewed through our tinted masks. Guess they work..

Brian, I second Cynde's WOW! Very nice indeed. I read your report, sounds like you both had another great trip to the island. I hope to have my report up soon! Enjoy the Maldives:-)

Thanks for the comments.

I can't take the credit for these as Sue took most of them.

How about a reward, if you can correctly name numbers 3 and 4, we will post some more.

Well done - that was obviously way too easy. I thought the Jack Knife would take some time.

I forgot to add my wow, too. Gorgeous photos!

The only reason why I knew the Jack Knife wasn't a Spotted Drum was I'd been re-reading the Humann book (yes, I'm a nerd) and remembered the stripe vs. spot on the nose difference.

Sue - you go girl!!! In the words of my seven year old - "Wow these rock!" .... In the well-over-forty lingo - "These are fantastic photos!!!" (and Brian, special kudos on your photo from "THE DEEP" I think you have inspired Dean to go on that dive too!)

I got a wonderful postal package from Dot and Dan today with photos!! and a nice letter. I will be e-mailing them today and let them know you are looking for them and have posted these wonderful memorial photos from the Holiday 2003-4 trip!

Keep the photos coming for all of us to enjoy - so Sue are you thinking maybe about a professional photography career?? You two could be having a lot more trips and getting them paid for too! What a great midlife career change it could be!!

Keep the photos coming - can't wait to see the Maldives - but where will you post them??

Brian, I just came across your photos and they are magnificent. I am moved by their beauty. One of the reasons I became certified so late in my life is I hope to one day have at least one photo of the caliber of yours. Carl
