A day for fishes

Super Moon

Got up at O-Dark-Hundred and went to look at the super moon set. But, no good shots. The not so super sun rose and overtook the moon as it was making it’s super dive into the ocean. Yesterday would have been a better day. But, you shoot the moon you have. This was just a test shot and it turned out to be my only shot. 

Thanks for the monopod, Trudie.

After a 900+ calorie breakfast with friends – it was time for a nice long swim. Took the much maligned $99 camera.

These guys are cute and very common.

This handsome butterfly is very common in French Polynesia – but seeing one in our waters is special.

These guys are sort of our local fish. I think we have more of them than the other islands.

And, finally… I have been seeing lots of eels recently.

And, thanks to everyone who sent kind greetings yesterday. I am glad to have that done. And, when my time comes… or if anyone wants to visit Mr C… the coordinates are:

19°38’21” N 155°59’40” W

Remember boys and girls: Science doesn’t care if you believe in it or not.
