It was sunny outside today.
So, I can see the diver who wear a wetsuit recently .

The water temperature is getting warm.
So, underwater creatures is so active now.

In this term, the main topic of Kushimoto’s sea is spawning behavior of Bigfin reef squid.
A male squid is very big.  When he get closer to us, it’s very powerful !!

I updated the movie of squid in Youtube.
If you don’t mind please check the movie.

After observing it, I took a picture of underwater macro creatures .

This is a picture of Hermit crab.
They live in a hole where is coral.

There are also beautiful shell behind hermit crab.
I think it is so beautiful, so I took a pic of it.

Others, the seaweed was spawning.

Can you see the tiny eggs??Eggs is red one.
It is so difficult to observe with your eyes, so you need to use digital camera.

Last, I wanna show you this seaslug.

This is “Pikachu”. The color seems like Pokemon Pikachu, so Japanese diver call it “Pikachu”

In a little while, you will be able to make reservations through “KLOOK” website.
Please come and see the sea of Kushimoto when you come to Japan.

See you then(^^)/

カラフルな被写体♪

マクロ〜ワイドまで被写体たくさん♪。

今日も天気最高。
ここ最近は陸上が夏のような気候なってきています。

いつもこんな天気だったらどれだけいいか・・・。

水温んも18度〜19度になってきてじわじわと水温が上がってきています。

今日は、久々にカメラを持って潜ってきました。
前半はマクロ・後半はアオリイカの産卵状況の確認を。

アオリイカは多い時で5ペアほどがきていましたが、産卵までは観察できず・・・。

でもオスの喧嘩など見応えのある場面もたくさんありました〜〜。

アオリイカの他にはカラフルな被写体がたくさん。
まずは今の時期多く見られるアヤニシキの放卵。

オーバーに撮ったら淡い色合いになって綺麗でした(^^)
中心の卵の分かりますか??肉眼で見るには結構凝視が必要www

カメラで是非写真に収めてくださいね〜〜!!

続いては、背景に綺麗なウミギクカイモドキ。


今日はスズメダイが始め巣穴の前を占拠していてカンザシヤドカリのご機嫌が悪かったです(^^;)

最後は、またまた数が増えていている??
1cmサイズのピカチュウ。

昨日、せっかくむらいさちさんのセミナーへお誘いいただいたのに、私用で参加できなかったので、我流で試してみました。

参加できていたら・・・もっとゆるふわな写真が撮れるようになってたかな???

さて、明日からは週末。
生憎の天気ではありますが、雨の日はアオリイカの産卵にとって絶好のコンディション!!!!

明日も大産卵が見られますように〜〜。

It was heavy rain yesterday.
Some area damaged by heavy rain.

After rainy day, the visibility is usually getting worse, but today visibility of the sea is so good!!

We can see that situation sometimes.
The white area is freshwater that is coming from river, and then blue area is sea water.

Its situation is rare, I think.
Because, this situation is not something you can see even if you want to see it.

Isn’t this gradation beautiful.?

When I dive today, I can see many kinds of baby fish.
The number of juvenile fish is expected to increase.

The Glass Goby stay at beautiful place.
This polyps looks like flower I think.

The end of diving, I can meet friendly sea turtle.
The sea turtle doesn’t run away at all.

So, we can get closer to her.
Her face is very cute. We hung out with her for ten minutes.

The number of sea turtle is getting more after May.
It becomes easy to meet her after that season.

If you want to see a sea turtle, I recommend you to come May through September.

We will dive three times tomorrow.
I hope the visibility is still good.

See you then(^^)/

The condition of the sea is keeping good conditions while “Golden Week”.
I hope the condition is keeping good in this term.

Today, I looked for macro creatures as the main theme.

I can find beautiful situation.
The shrimp stay on the starfish.

Don’t you think that color is beautiful, do you?

There are still many “Pikachu” recently.
It seems like Pokemon Pikachu. So, we call it “Pikachu”.

At second dive, I was look for cute crab.
The crab usually have a sponge on the back.

She is good at hiding. So, it is difficult to find it.
If she find out you’re there, the crab is shaking her body.
Its behavior is so cute.

This frog is tiny and cute.
The size is about 1cm.  The white area is my finger.
I think you can see the size.

The sea condition look good tomorrow.
I hope I can enjoy diving as much as today.

See you then(^^)/

春はマクロに尽きる!!

GW後半戦。幸い天気にも恵まれて、快適に潜ることができています。
今日はマクロ好き&マクロ写真のゲストさんと一緒に3ダイブ。

春はやっぱりマクロに尽きるかな〜〜。

ウミウシもたくさんいましたが、今日は甲殻類もたくさん(^^)
背景がとても綺麗なヒトデヤドリエビonマンジュウヒトデ。
やっぱりこの色彩はとても綺麗ですね〜〜。

そして、最近サメのヒレに多いアカゲカムリ。

外洋にもいて今季数がとても多いみたいです。
多いといえば、ピカチュウもその一つ。

外洋でもピカチュウが見られるほどに数が多いみたい。
浅地でピカチュウ見たのって初めてかも。

他にもアカボシウミウシなどなど、ウミウシ多い時期です。

最終便には、生存が難しいかと思われていた、ベニカエルの生存を確認。
小さいのに、なんとか耐えてくれているみたいです。

さて、明日まではとりあえず天気も海も穏やかで快適なコンディションのはず。
なんとか最終日まで海が持ってくれるといいなあ〜〜〜。

アオリイカ来た〜〜〜(>▽<)

やっとアオリイカ産卵行動見れました。

GWの前半戦。
朝は風が思ったよりも強く波も高くて、出港が30分ほど遅れてしまいましたが、
なんとか風が収まり、1日ダイビングをすることができました。

その甲斐もあってか今日は個人的に初のアオリイカの産卵が見られました(^^)

最大3ペア+オス。
一回間近で産卵行動も見られ、みなさん20分以上アオリイカに釘つけ笑

これから水温が上がって来ると、もっと産卵行動が活発化してくるかな〜〜???
これからの時期が楽しみです(^^)

GWはもう一つ安定した被写体が(^^)

ニュースでも取り上げられた鯉のぼり。
今日はいい感じに泳いでいました〜〜。

マクロも色々見られます。
ウミウシは相変わらず健在で今日は擬態系のウミウシがたくさん。

どこに隠れているのか分かりますか??

そして、もう1種類はこちら。

これは写真で見たら分かりやすいかな??
こちらも水中ではめちゃくちゃ分かりにくいウミウシです笑

春になると出てくる被写体といえば、スズメダイの赤ちゃん。
大きさ1cmのアマミスズメダイygに出会うことができました!!!
めちゃ可愛い(^^)

ワイドにマクロにGWの後半戦に向けて楽しみな季節。
あとは水温が1度でも上がってくれますように〜〜。

本日は、ご一緒させていただいたゲストさん4名様にお借りしました!!
ありがとうございました!!!
