Bali - Puri Jati, Tulamben and Secret Bay
The trip to Bali passed without problems, and on the first few days I have been photographing at the diving sites Puri Jati and Tulamben (Secret Bay - Liberty Wreck).
The remote site Puri Jati has changed for the worse; there are more divers than before, more rubbish (especially underwater), and the pleasant peace of the beach is no longer ;-(
The best pictures have been of coconut octopus and a painted frogfish.
After years, I have met Stephen Wong and Takako Uno at Puri Jati again. I was with the two of them together in Tongo and the Azores a few years ago photographing whales and dolphins. I did not see either of them working with a Seacam case, although there is a report about this at the Seacam Website ;-)
My BIDP diving guide and I spent the night in the Aditya Beach Resort and the Scuba Seraya Resort.
