I just saw the recent posts on Bali and what sounded like an amazing opportunity to learn about taking great photos - my goodness I wish I had gone to it, it would have been so helpful!
Anyway, I went to Bali the last week of September and wanted to post some photos of molas before the pros finish their processing and stick up some really good pics.
We dived one day in Sanur (Nusa Penida) and saw two of these amazing creatures (one on our second dive of the day and one on our last dive of the trip) - my goodness was the DM relieved! The molas are definitely awe-inspiring. I just wish that photographers weren't so keen on swimming very quickly right up to them and scaring them away! Bah!
Unfortunately the visibility wasn't very good when we were diving Nusa Penida (you can see the pics are a bit murky) - so this will definitely warrent a return trip to get a better picture!
We also dived two days in Tulamben and the macro was simply amazing. Loved the harlequin shrimps:
And hope you guys saw these too. First time I'd even seen boxer crabs. Well, first time I'd seen any of the things I've put up on this post!
Definitely want to go back again:
