Yong Aishah's Blog: It is easier to float with diving gear on than it is without!

Here I am diving with my friends (I am with the purple diving suit)

There are a lot of the finger like corals (see below).

Saw this giant clam resting at the bottom of the sea (below).

The clam creature! (below) Looks very slimy.

Loads of other creatures playing in the corals (below).

Look at all the fish (below)! Also note the colour in the photos. As we go down deeper into the sea, we start to lose some colours as the colour frequency gets absorbed by the water. The first to disappear is the colour red. Hence the bluish tinge in the underwater photos.

After the dive, while on the surface, we have a fun time talking about what we saw.

Waiting for the boat to get to us was boring, especially when you are dead tired!

The bright sun also did not help.

Despite the heavy diving gear, noticed that I and friends were floating quite easily? This is because we have the Buoyancy Control Devise (or BCD) to help us float.
