uae fish identification

Basically my name is Will and I am a rectreational diver based in the UAE.

Back in July this year I bought a cheap $20 underwater camera and thats when it all started I then went on to buy a decent underwater camera - the Sea and Sea 1G with the YS110 strobe and am now learning all about it.

I have carried out around 200 dives in Indonesia. Thailand and the Midde East.

I attained my Padi Divemaster qualification whilst living in Thailand.

I am married to a lovely lady called

Anita who hails from Sulawesi Indonesia.

I am enjoying identifying fish that I

photograph and thats the reason for this blog.
As I am a beginner if I do make any mistakes

I would appreciate any corrections and criticisms.
Keep blowin them bubbles

Thats me in the middle by the way at my daughters wedding - between my younger brothers Adam and Brian.
