Frogman goes diving #1

[Frogman]

Hey guys,

I spent last week (June 25 - July 2) diving at Capt Don's Habitat on the Caribbean island of Bonaire.  Thought you guys might enjoy some pictures!

I think I say this every time, but mannnnnnnnn it's a whole different world down there and some of those creatures are phenomenal.
That seahorse is really cool. Thanks for sharing those Jim

See any sharks ?

[Frogman]

bambam,

We seldom see sharks at Bonaire.  There are some on the windward side of the island, but we don't dive much there due to the rough seas.  Several years ago we found a nurse shark on a dive. 

When i went to Galapagos, Truk Lagoon, and  Palau we saw sharks on nearly every dive!  I was doing hi-8 video then and I don't know how to convert the footage to digital to show you guys the sharks???

By the way, the sharks aren't nearly as dangerous to divers as "Shark Week" and "Jaws" would have you believe!!  When we see them we are excited and just appreciate their beauty and grace in the water!  They are seldom a threat to us.
