Pygmy Pipehorse (Idiotropiscis lumnitzeri)

A rare Pygmy Pipehorse (Idiotropiscis lumnitzeri). Looks similar to the Seahorse Family except for the little antenna's.They are about 30mm in length hard to find and not to mention to photograph! You have to wait for the current to position their tiny little body's there so delicate. Taken at Bare Island, Sydney, Australia with a Sony DSC T3 with Marine Housing. Exact location is a secret!!

Introductory Rust Diving on the Wreck of the MalabarIntroductory Rust Diving on the Wreck of the Malabar
Around 7:00am on Thursday, April 2, 1931, a dense fog suddenly rolled into Long Bay, obscuring the northern headland. On the bridge of MV Malabar, en-route from Melbourne to Sydney, Captain George Leslie recognised the danger and ordered 5 degrees rudder to steer the ship seaward to pass further offshore than his original plan of half a mile.
