Sleeping Copper Banded Butterfly fish, Kalinda Grubb reef, Townsville

Long Nose Butterfly fish upside down, Bunaken

impossible to forgo a night dive when on a live aboard such as a recent trip to Komodo, even when I was unwell. For me, in a world where mankind is hell bent on chopping down the trees, digging up the earth, covering it with concrete and bitumen and killing everything, I love being surrounded by the abundant life in the ocean. There is magic in the sea, and the greatest magic of all happens in the darkness.

Nighttime is when the Crays come out of their dens to forage.
