Divers' Dreams -Photo Singapore

to Divers' Dreams Singapore Photo Gallery.

Even in our limited visibility, if you keep your eyes peeled and take your time to explore, there are things to be seen and what you see, may sometimes surprise you. For photographers who say it is a waste of time and that you can't take decent pictures, then I would say that you still have a lot to learn. There are subjects to practice your macro photography on. Again, it is just a matter of working within the limitations of your camera system. A little know-how on techniques will also help some but the best is to practice and to improve on your mistakes.

Every so often, we will be featuring a group of marine life that can be found in Singapore. Some are seen quite often but some are rarely seen.

I started diving locally in Singapore since 1991 and the first time I ever spotted a frogfish/anglerfish in Singapore was in 1996. That surprised me and a lot of people who wouldn't believe there are such unique creatures in Singapore waters. Since then, I have only spotted others on 7 occassions . Being masters at camouflage and due to our limited vsibility, they are extremely hard to find. They vary in colours but are all the same species. Their size here ranges from about 2 - 5 cm.
