SHADES OF COLOUR PHOTOGRAPHIC COMPETITION<br />

‘Bigfin Reef Squid’; Arefi Beau <strong>Dive</strong> Site, Raja Ampat: Sealife DC2000, wide angle lens – f/2.0, 1/160, ISO125<br />

<strong>Nov</strong>ice Category Winner:<br />

Congratulations, Sarah Ford, New Zealand.<br />

Sarah was enjoying the diving at Raja Ampat,<br />

Indonesia when she came upon a group of Bigfin reef<br />

squid at a dive site named, Arefi Beau. The squid<br />

were placing their numerous eggs on a sandy bottom<br />

amongst some red coral.<br />

To witness these beautiful, translucent squid laying<br />

their eggs is the type of diving experience we all hope<br />

will come our way during our time underwater!<br />

Sarah receives a Gift Voucher for NZ$75.<br />
