Johan, Marnes and Indra shoot their first Hairy Octopus

CrittersBy NAD LembehNovember 26, 20123 Comments

We’ve been having fantastic diving recently, and we have been having some fun with the guys taking pictures and also annoying out yearly repeat guest, Mood. Mood has been to Lembeh every year for the last 5 years and still does not have the hairy octopus, he always missed it.  We see it when he…

Some photos from the last week

LembehBy NAD LembehNovember 23, 20122 Comments

I started the week diving a lot, but with routine engine servicing (7 engines over 2 days), new restaurant furniture (pics to follow soon) and removing a flower bed and preparing for the final phase of the roof renovation (above the wet camera room) – I am heading into the weekend feeling I haven’t dived…

Photo tips: Bracketing

UW Photo TipsBy NAD LembehNovember 23, 2012Leave a comment

I touched on bracketing in the previous photo tips post.  Bracketing was used (back in film camera times) to make sure that one of your shots from a sequence was correctly exposed;  you take a sequence of shots at varied settings and hope that one was correct. As an example – if you set your…

Photo Tips: Introduction

UW Photo TipsBy NAD LembehNovember 22, 20123 Comments

With everyone shooting digital and huge memory cards it is quite easy these days to take 100+ photographs in a dive, especially in Lembeh. The key to getting a good photo that you are still happy with by the time you go home is to take your time and keep using the image review button. …

Dragon Shrimp

Creature Feature, CrittersBy NAD LembehNovember 20, 2012Leave a comment

The Dragon Shrimp (Miropandalus hardingi) usually lives on whip corals and is quite a rare critter in Lembeh, although at the moment we seem to have a lot (and a lot of everything in general!).  It is not a very exciting animal, so my video is quite short, it did move a little bit so there…

Hairy Squat Lobster

Creature Feature, CrittersBy NAD LembehNovember 19, 2012Leave a comment

The Hairy Squat Lobster (Lauriea siagiani) lives in the crevices of the large barrel sponges here in the Lembeh Strait. They typically hide pretty well making it tricky to photograph them, and extremely hard to video them.  I found this guy on a night-dive and he was sat out and moving around, in fact he…

The Asshole Fish and his friends.

PhotographyBy NAD LembehNovember 16, 20127 Comments

The last few days I have been spending several hours diving in the same place freezing my ass off looking for this stupid fish, that I have named the asshole fish.  The asshole fish lives in Seriatopora Corals from 1m to 10m depth and I hate him. He gets his name because he has some…

What to do on a Singapore layover part 1 (Bird Park)

MiscellaneousBy NAD LembehNovember 16, 2012Leave a comment

On our family break earlier this month we visited the Jurong Bird Park in Singapore for an afternoon.  We did about 3 hours in the park which wasn’t enough time for making a good video, but was enough time to know I need to go back again someday. I shot this with a 70-200mm lens…

Cymothoa exigua, Bent’s favourite Critter

Critters, Lembeh, PhotographyBy NAD LembehNovember 15, 2012Leave a comment

So, after the English Football team got there ass (arse) whooped by Sweden last night I thought to myself ‘what would Bent do?’ The answer was not hard to find, as our favourite Swede/Dane hybrid loves parasites and all things small and disgusting. I headed out on a dive with Stenly, Joni, Johan, Indra, Abner…

Sex Show Everynight!

Critters, Diving StoriesBy NAD LembehNovember 14, 20121 Comment

Last night I was feeling a little bored and felt that I needed to relieve some urges from deep in my soul. The only cure to that was to go and watch some sex! Before you all start thinking im losing my mind, I am, of course, talking about Mandarinfish (Synchiropus splendidus).  These beautiful little…
