Best of Mike #499

In May of this year we were in Bonaire for 5 weeks diving… and of course taking pixtures.

On the very first day of that trip I flooded the battery compartment of my strobe… and by the time I realized what was happening the strobe was beyond any hope of repair. 

The prospect of many days of diving with no pixtures looked pretty bleak. But luckily I found a dive shop (Dive Friends) that was well stocked with photo gear and I was able to buy a replacement strobe.

Then the universe balanced the scales. 

On the 1st dive of Day 2 we were approached by an Eagle Ray… not once but twice.

He was a small one but he came in closer than I have ever been to one before… allowing me to get 4 nice pixtures. 

I previously posted one of those in BoM #452 and here’s another. 

I had no idea that their face was shaped like that.

PS… the new strobe works great!
