Dive #2 at Ribbon Valley 1, Mabul
After a rather hearty lunch at the resort restaurant, we had some time to laze about before our next dive. I managed to grab this panorama of the area (created using my netbook on Windows Live Photo Gallery). Personally think it really captures the beauty of the place and the wonderfully kept corals.
The sea water was ultra-clear with the sun illuminating the sea bed for perfect photo taking opportunities.
Dive #2 was also quite low on vis (5m) which was unfortunate since there was a great many sea creatures to spot. This beautiful orange plate (Thanks Julian for identifying) really stood out from it’s surrounding. If Niger hadn’t pointed out the incredibly well camouflaged frog fish, I would definitely have missed it!
