Moz Pics

Our itineraty in Mozambique has been from north to south:

Pemba
Quirimbas Archipeligo (Ibo Island)
Beira
Vilanculo/Bazaruto Archipeligo
Tofo Beach, Inhambane

These pics from top to bottom:

1) Leopard shark that my Dive Instructor (his pic) and I saw this morning at the "Amazon" dive site about 15km off of Barra Point near Tofo

2&3) 2 shots from my second dive at "Giant's Castle" in Tofo (a drift dive at about 30 meters near a manta "cleaning station") where we saw MANY huge manta rays (about 5m from wingtip to wingtip) on both dives

4) One of my first underwater photographs! Using my instructors camera for the photography section fomy Advanced PADI course. I think this is a Stoen Fish, but whatever it is, it looks cool.

5) a humpback whale calf jumping just a few yards off of my dive boat earlier this week in Tofo. My Instructor, Ed took this shoot and I didn't have my camera, but this calf and its mother hung by our boat forever. An amazing site, but I've gotten used to whales here - they are everywhere.

6) me standing on to of a crazy ~600 foot high dune at the southern tip of Bazaruto Island in between dives on Two Mile Reef.
