I just got back from Lady Elliot Island. I'll be posting some of my manta photos/videos soon. Have you submitted any of your images to PROJECT MANTA? http://www.uq.edu.au/ecology/project-manta

I saw mantas when I was diving in PNG. Bigger than I ever imagined. Another great photo. The water looks so clear and inviting.
