Thumbs up Great Barrier Reef- Australia DUW

Hey,

Well finally got around to uploading my waterproof camera pics from my trip to the Barrier Reef last month. I did a 5 day livaboard on the TAKA boat. This is easily the best way to see the reef, as you get way out into the most remote locations on the reef away from the "touristy" parts of the reef close to Cairns where the day boats go out.

I want to go ahead and say, this was my first time using a underwater camera, and my underwater camera is by no means as good as my land camera. So while I tried to get nice pics, my pics do absolutely NO JUSTICE to how beautiful the reef is, it just has to be seen in person, its truley a magical place.





The Cod Feed, these potato Cod were massive, they pushed the sharks out of the way:






Shark Feed, the coolest dive I ever have done, there were just hundreds of them circling around and they swam right up to you, it was just awesome:



Some other random fish pics:

Parrotfish, really cool fish, they eat the coral, and poop out sand:
