Hi guys,

I ran away from work and spent a couple of days diving at Perhentian. Here are some pics to share!

1. Lumpy at Batu Nisan


2. A forest of corals


3. Fryeria menindie


4. Getting the shot


5. Close encounter


All pictures taken with Canon A95 with natural light. Wish I had a strobe or two for those wide-angle shots...Appreciate any comments and tips on how to improve!

haha yes, i enjoy perhentian..my 4th trip there this year.

i'm not sure if i understand your question about the vis?
My first 3 trips from May-July weren't very good. Max was about 10-15m, mostly less. Except for Tokong Laut, which never fails to amaze..easily 20+m vis on good days.

it's getting better now, think it'll be great in august/sept. i went there around national day last year, and the vis was amazing..

was at florabay on perhentian besar..same beach as arwana
