Dive Guide Underwater Photography Calendar 2019

Every year at Lembeh Resort we publish a calendar which consists of underwater images taken by our talented team of Dive Guides. To decide which 12 images will be used in the calendar we ask people to “Like” their favorites on Facebook and for guests in resort to vote on the ones they like best.

This year we had an incredible response with many of you voting and the overall winning image (with the most “Likes”) was a stunning hairy frogfish image taken by Dive Guide Sandro Maabuat (above) – congratulations to Sandro who also had the 2nd placed image of Halgerda batangas (below).

 

 

The other winning images were of a wide range of Lembeh Strait critters, including raggy scorpionfish, redhead coral goby, clown frogfish, depressed spider crab, sexy shrimps, Thecacera Sp., pygmy cuttlefish, Phestilla Sp. and a beautiful juvenile pufferfish.

We are extremely proud of all of our Dive Guides who have not only displayed their own underwater photography skills but also highlighted the extreme marine bio-diversity which we have here in Lembeh – well done to everyone!
