Location: Truk Lagoon Dive Site: Shinkoku Maru Marine Life ID: Anemonefish Camera and Settings: Nikon N70 in Ikelite housing, 60mm lens, f-22, SB-105 at TTL Film: Fuji Velvia 50 Description: I saw this anemonefish on the poop deck of the ship. I took three shots and this is the only shot where you can actually see the eyes.

Location: Truk Lagoon Dive Site: Heian Maru Marine Life ID: Banded coral shrimp Camera and Settings: Nikon N70 in Ikelite housing, 60mm lens, f-22, SB-105 at TTL Film: Fuji Velvia 50 Description: This is the first thing I saw on our night dive at the Heian Maru. It took a lot of patience since every time I tried to aim my point light at the shrimp, it scurried back in the hole.

Location: Truk Lagoon Dive Site: Shinkoku Maru Marine Life ID: Nudibranch Camera and Settings: Nikon N70 in Ikelite housing, 60mm lens, f-22, SB-105 at TTL Film: Fuji Velvia 50 Description: This is my first photograph of a nudibranch. It was on the top of the superstructure at around 80 feet.

Location: Truk Lagoon Dive Site: Odyssey hang bar Camera and Settings: Nikon N70 in Ikelite housing, 20mm lens, f-22, SB-105 at TTL Film: Fuji Velvia 50 Description: Photo of my buddy while on our safety stop.

Location: Truk Lagoon Dive Site: Fujikawa Maru Marine Life ID: Grouper Camera and Settings: Nikon N70 in Ikelite housing, 60mm lens, f-22, SB-105 at TTL Film: Fuji Velvia 50 Description: This grouper was just at the down line near the bow of the ship.

Location: Truk Lagoon Dive Site: Fujikawa Maru Camera and Settings: Nikon N70 in Ikelite housing, 60mm lens, f-22, SB-105 at TTL Film: Fuji Velvia 50 Description: This is a photo of a lamp I found near the pilot house of the ship. Notice the squirrelfish in the background.

Location: Truk Lagoon Dive Site: Pizion Reef Marine Life ID: Black tipped reef shark Camera and Settings: Nikon N70 in Ikelite housing, 20mm lens, f-22, SB-105 at TTL Film: Fuji Velvia 50 Description: I was finishing my safety stop and this shark circled above me twice. I didn't want to surface while she was there so I took a couple of shots while I waited for her to leave.

Location: Truk Lagoon Dive Site: Momokawa Maru Camera and Settings: Nikonos V, 15mm lens, f-8, auto shutter, SB-105 at TTL Film: Fuji Velvia 50 Description: This is the only human remains that I've ever seen since I started going to Truk Lagoon.
