Great photos - I am glad that some divers enjoy all aspects of marine life - tends to worry me when guests come back and all they can say is "we didn't see a whaleshark" 
A week in the Similans - in Pictures! (a lot of pictures)

These shots are inspiring! What equipment are you using? Thanks for sharing.
I use a Sony Alpha SLR (A-350), in an Ikelite housing with two Ikelite DS-125 strobes.
All the small stuff was taken with a Sigma 70mm (105mm on this camera), and the bigger stuff with a Sigma 17-70mm.
I think using the strobes, and shooting in RAW makes a huge difference to the colour and quality of the shots.

I was onboard the Marco Polo, it's a liveaboard run by the same company I used for the day diving prior to the trip (Sea Bees).
It falls in the middle of the boat range out of Phuket, not luxury and not backpacker. (Half the rooms have AC)
However it does have a very experienced Tour Leader who has spent more than a few years working on it and diving in this area - so he's very, very good at finding interesting things.
