Wakatobi - December 2003

In southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia is a group of four islands.  On the second to last in the chain is the diving resort of Wakatobi.  The SCUBA diving here is unmatched in the world!  The concentration of fish, creature and coral life is greater than in any other destination.  We spent 10 days diving there as part of a month long southeast Asia trip.  In the gallery links below you will find a sampling of some of the underwater images I was able to capture.  Note that these are all un-edited and un-cropped i.e. raw images.  In many of them you may be wondering what you are looking at.  I have not had the time to detail the fish and creature life in each image.  Many of the critters are very rare and only found in this part of the world.  Enjoy!!!
