To be honest, I like the idea of the photography contest, although having to pay for each photo entered doesn't seem like a good idea to me. I think that selling a calendar featuring the winning images could raise funds for the forum, so there wouldn't need to be an entry fee—at least, that's how I see it.

In the end, for various reasons, we didn't go in 2026. This week I was checking availability for next year (2027), and everything was already fully booked. Anyway, I’ve just done something crazy and booked with Tongan Expeditions for September 2028... I’ll have time to save up, and my future self will have to pay for the flights and the trip in a couple of years 😅

This bag can hold water; in fact, there's a picture of it with water inside on their website.

Maybe it could be useful for you, I use an Yellow sub Mega tote bag from S&S for local dives. This bag can also be used as a rinsing bucket. S&S bag

In my case, I currently use 2 S&S D3 Duo with zero problems. And was using before two D2 also with no problems at all. Planning to update the D3 for the new ones YS-D130R this year.

I am currently using an Isotta for the D500, using it with all the ports I own from the old S&S that I have for the D300. I also had an Isotta for the Canon G11 a while ago. I am also happy with it.

Interesting. Isotta also recommends 200 dives or 2 years. And how often do you change the o-ring of the housing? My last S&S D300 housing it had like 15 years and didn’t change it even once.

Hi Luko, yes it was around 7 cm, not too big. Thank you for the input.

Thank you Chris, Your image is very different indeed. I also thought about it could be an ambon scorpionfish, but in my image there are not supraorbital tentacles.🤔

I'm asking for help again. I’m unsure if this is a Weedy scorpionfish (Rhinopias frondosa) or not. It looks quite similar to me but for the images I see I’m not sure. What do you think? Taken on Tulamben, Bali. Thank you.

Thank you all for the help. I checked again and maybe this image could help, the lure is fluffy with a thin transparent rod, like Chris Ross pointed out. At first, I thought all the white thing was the rod and lure...

This one for the lure could help?

Thank you. I don’t have any shoot that shows full body, maybe this one could help? But is quite similar as the other one.

This one is from Tulamben, Bali. I am having quite a hard time identifying some frogfish, I’m not sure if they are juveniles from any species or simply a little frogfish, lol. For reference I’m looking a quite good webpage only for frogfishes but I’m struggling knowing which specie could it be. I’m struggling basically with almost any frogfish image that I have. Frog Fish Web Any tip?

Thank you Chris, I was told that it is better to check if you mount on a different flip other than Nauticam. I’m thinking of buying one paring with the Nikkor 105mm… GAS
