The tail is used to corral fish together and then stun them so the shark can feed at its leisure. This particular shark was photographed down on the Southern end of Daedalus reef, Southern Red Sea. They are often see... More info »

This picture was taken during the BBC week on board the Hurricane in January 2007. As can be seen, taken close to the surface. These sharks are curiou... More info »

No loss of life and an almost complete recovery of all equipment on board. Its a popular wreck as it is completely covered in hard and soft corals. Often Grey Reefs and Hammerheads are cruising the blue in amongst sc... More info »

Down on the Southern end of Little Brother in the Southern Red Sea. Once finishing the current fuelled dive down the East or West wall it is great to hang out at the end of the reef and explore the amazing amount of hard a soft corals. there are a couple of big male Napoleons which have made this reef their home.

The Southern Red Sea, Egypt. There are not many better places for diving. Especially looking at the condition that the hard and soft corals are in. With great visibility and a little patience it is fairly easy to get great pics. Of course a good camera makes a big difference!

The health of a reef can be measured by the quality and quantity of the hard and soft corals growing there. As seen by this picture, the condition of the reef in the Southern Red Sea is superb. Nowhere else in the world is there such an abundance of flora and fauna. Well worth a trip........and dont forget your camera!

Its a special moment to see a school of Barracudas out in the blue. Its especially nice when there are around 500 or so of them!! This is just a few of the Barracudas hanging around the Northern end of Sanganeb Reef in the Sudan. I was able to get inside as they did the swirling, tornado type movement that we have all seen in films. Superb!

Angerosh Reef in the Red Sea, Northern Sudan. A common sight on the southern end of the reef. Schooling Hammerheads frequently patrol above the plateau that is there. These are female Scalloped Hammerheads that are socialising and being cleaned. This shot took a lot of patience having waited out there in the blue for around 20 minutes at around 40m. Th...

Gorgonian Fan on Little Brother, Southern Red Sea. On the Southern end of the reef before coming round the corner where the boats moor up, is a fantastic Gorgonian Fan field. Often there are Grey Reef Sharks cruising in and out of them and if there is not to much current it is possible to stay a while and look for the Longnose Hawkfish that seek cover o... More info »
