Great shots,Geoff!

They're all excellent, but the first one, the baby frogfish, is really unique ... my favorite.

Cool... The orangutan crab hanging out is probably my favorite. Never seen a baby frogfish either, so that is interesting. Nice colors on the zebra crab shot.

Have given some thought to diving with Atlantis on my proposed trip to the Philippines. These shots are certainly pushing me in their direction (along with a few other areas).
