September 8: Ogi (Going Macro Today!)

Staff blog | Published:

September 8: Ogi (Going Macro Today!), photo 1

Hello!

This is Chika from Freeway!

Today, partly because of the typhoon...

we wanted to go to the kobudai (Asian sheepshead wrasse) site, but we went to the Ogi sites again today 💦

Today we did a topography dive, swimming through holes...

and looking for macro subjects!

◾️Kiiro umiushi (a yellow nudibranch)

It's a nudibranch that's rare in Sado; like the seasonal visitor fish, it can be seen in autumn.

◾️Toushima kokeginpo (a small blenny)

They come in all sorts of colors like black, red and brown, so looking for them is fun too 😊

◾️Seahorse

Found at a shore dive site!

Our guest had never seen a seahorse, so I'm really glad we found one!

◾️Himesemiebi (a small slipper lobster)

A cute face that looks like it has a little mustache!

I wish I could have taken a better shot...

It lives in deep, dark spots, so it was quite hard to photograph...

◾️Jawfish

The way it keeps its mouth hanging wide open is just so cute!

I tried my best to shoot it with a little background blur!

There was a bit of current, but...

perhaps thanks to that, visibility was clearer than yesterday!

A selfie with our guests “Y” and “I,” who came from Tokyo 📸

Thank you for the two days 😊

It's a shame we couldn't get to the kobudai site, but...

I'm glad you seemed to enjoy it!

Let's go to the kobudai site next time!

Enjoy your trip to Sado!

Thank you so much!
