Pictures taken by me and my brother Martin while diving in the Red Sea. All images taken while diving of an expat recreational compound known as "Blue Beach", just north of Jeddah in Saudi Arabia. All pictures are taken with a Nikonos V camera and on occasion close-up equipment was used.

The clown fish, very convenient for photographers, if all else they will happily pose for the camera.	Martin on his way down

The following images contain a selection of soft and hard corals taken using close-up equipment. Some of them may have been taken using extension cubes (a tube positioned between the camera body and the lens), unfortunately we never kept any notes of what we took so I cannot remember exactly which picture was taken with what technical equipment.
