Good evening everybody.... Jay is coming again!
Our sun is lazy for a few day. We are facing cloudy and rainy weather. Maybe our earth is getting sick already. Global warming maybe is the main issue that we should concentrate. Since these few year, weather keep changing. As one of the "freeloader" in this earth, we should keep our earth clean and healthy. Save our earth and do not forget our oceans. Everybody please shout together with Jay : " Earth, I Love U !"

Semporna Dive....Paradise of Macro

We went to Semporna for diving (Jay, Alex, (2 professional photographer : Stephen Wong and Takako Uno) and our heavy repeater Eiko san. Semporna dive is very good for macro. Mainly for gobies and nudibranchs. Sometime also can see seahorse. Here we want to thank Takako Uno for share some picture to us. Some gobies and nudibranchs's name cannot be found in the book. Maybe our references not so update and hope you all can assist us for these.
