Yeah i found out about the stingrays after I left Australia :S ... I was only worried about jellyfishes at the time (even though I was wearing this 'anti-jellyfishes' suit).

Thanks! Spotting it was quite easy as it came very close to me. I was trying to chase a stingray when this turtle showed up, out of nowhere! I gave up on the stingray and swam with the turtle instead :)

Excellent spotting. I really like the second shot.
