Hello, this is Chika from Freeway!

Today we took it nice and easy on a shore dive!

We had a guest who loves nudibranchs, so I searched hard, but...

most of them were the usual nudibranchs...

① Shiroumiushi ② Aoumiushi ③ Kiiroiboumiushi ④ Jibogaumiushi ⑤ Otomeumiushi

⑥ Azukiumiushi ⑦ Sarasaumiushi ⑧ Otomemidorigai ⑨ Hiroumiushi ⑩ Hozukifushieragai

⑪ Otomemidorigai ⑫ Akaeraminoumiushi ⑬ Rare! Goshikiminoumiushi

★ Still, we were lucky to see a goshikiminoumiushi, which is rare in Sado!

Going deeper, cute jawfish poked their heads out for us!

Some weren't used to divers yet and quickly ducked back into their holes.

The way they peeked out of their holes was really cute!

And then...

Today's photos were my first ones taken with the OM-1!

(Borrowed as a test unit from Fisheye. Thank you as always!)

This time, no strobe: only the light of a ring light!

It's tricky... but so much fun!

I wish I could have made them look even cuter!

Please look forward to my progress. (haha)

■ A jawfish opening its mouth wide

■ A kokeginpo (a small blenny) in cute pink

■ A chagara (a goby), thin and weak, probably after laying eggs

■ A lucky find in Sado! Goshikiminoumiushi

Another fun day in the sea!

Thank you very much.
