Colin is a contender for the top Elite Diving underwater photographer, but perhaps not with this picture
While trying his new camera and experimenting with his brand new 60mm macro lense, Colin was hoping to capture some nudibranch. Colin looked up and saw one of the whales sharks that has been regularly seen in Sharm this last month. Forgetting what lens was on the camera, he automaticaly pointed to the large subject and shot off a few pictures. Not a bad result with a macro lens and an 8 meter whale shark.
These photos were taken where we normally jump for a drift dive on Ras Um Sid, so in Temple bay under the light house at 8 meters.

The 8 meter whale shark slowly swims off into the blue.
From a giant to a mino or to be more accurate a whale shark to a pipefish. Bring on the nudibrache

More like the type of macro shot Colin was after.
