Reef Pictures from Mexico

[adamrose]

Just got back from a trip to Quintana Roo - and thought i would share some pics with you folks.

The first underwater pic is a stingray... hard to make out, but it was great to see one in person. I saw a great variety of fish, but some were harder to capture than others - if you feel like it... you can give me the scientific names of the fish in the photos (it would be neat to know).


best!

My girlfriend and I celebrated our anniversary in Mexico, and i did get her a ring as a present.... but it wasn't a diamond (yet)

Meagheavz and Alex:

Looks like the reef is still in recovery mode. The last hurricane destroyed most of the reef. At least thats what the divers told me when I went two years ago. But from your pictures it looks like its coming back slowely but surely.

If you give Mother Earth time to heal her self,she will but with the increase of temps and hurricane activity,highly unlikely.
