Ornate Wrasse

This is already the third post covering my visit to Karpathos, Greece (post 1 and 2). A good week 🙂

Karpathos is a great place for snorkelling. Although the water is a little bit cold at this time of the year, we still managed sessions of 30-45 minutes in the water. There was a lot to see! It’s as colourful as the land is, just with different colors. I tried to catch nice fish with the camera, but I also snapped some landscape photos. At the end of the week I finally learned how to maintain clear vision (it turns out the trick is getting enough spit in your goggles), so I even tried to do some compositions…

These fish kept parading back and forth in front of me:

I like these openings in the rocks, giving a glimpse of what’s behind:

More fish 😉 (and red sea anemones):

And this is what it looks like if you lift your head above the water…  🙂

All photos were shot with the Canon Powershot S95 and a DiCaPac underwater cover. Thanks for reading!
