October 22: Kitakoura (Another Seahorse Today!), photo 1

Good evening!

This is Chika Nakagawa from Freeway's Sado shop!

Rain was forecast, but...

it didn't rain while we were diving, and the first dive had nice weather and was very pleasant!

■ Seahorse

We saw it at the Akaiwa site!

Lately, I don't know if there are fewer seahorses or if I just can't find them...

but when I find one, I'm so happy.

Please try looking for them too!

Take a good look at the next photo!

It's the common octopus I posted yesterday too, but...

today I tried focusing on the sarasaebi (a hinge-beak shrimp)!

Hm?!

Look at the blurred part in the background.

“Mr. Octopus! There's something sitting on your eye! (haha)”

In the next photo, I focused on the octopus.

A sarasaebi right on top of its eye.

I wonder if the octopus doesn't mind? (haha)

Shifting the point of focus like this is fun too!

■ Our guest Y, who joined us today

You were really skilled!

I know you're busy, but please come dive with us again!

Good luck at your competition too!

■ Our guest K, in a school of half-lined cardinalfish

Thank you again today!

A slow, careful dive with a wonderful camera!

Please keep taking cute photos of all kinds of creatures!

It's getting cold for wetsuits...

The water temperature is just right for dry suits!

We look forward to welcoming you all to the island!
