I finally got some time to upload some photos taken on my last trip to Lembeh in March 2011. We stayed there for two weeks, and I must say we were not at all disappointed at the diving, even though some people argue that the best time to go is in June-October when the water temperature drops. Lembeh is a great place to take macro shots and offers a wide range of subjects that can most definitely satisfy everyone. However, I must say that I can find exactly the same subjects in some of my favourite sites in Bali (e.g. Tulamben/Amed), and other places in Indonesia. The jetty at the pearl farm I work at in Raja Ampat hides most of the critters sought after in Lembeh. Of course, there aren’t many places in the world where there are 30+ muck dive sites in one small area such as Lembeh. Just for that, I will go again but most probably around June-October.
Awesome shots!! Really like the Velvet Fish shot with the strobe backlighting it.
Very nice! What camera are you using?
Great shot of the orange nudi on the orange background.

Thanks for the positive comments! I use a canon 7D housed in a Nauticam ND7. Before going on that trip I bought Nauticam's 180 degree viewfinder, I wouldn't take photos without it now !
Lovely photos Daniel.
