News, Events and Scuba Dive Trips from Downbelow
Two friends from Sarawak were with us as we were
conducting a Photo Clinic. Sadly the center of
attention was a beached 21m Bryde's Whale, which
soon became the the subject of a massive rescue
effort by the diving community and government
officials. That evening at high tide and after a
very long day the creature was towed from the reef.
Unfortunately it was found dead the following day
at almost the same spot. Due to the fact we were
focusing on the Photo Clinic with our friends
Matthew and Lee, we were without our own cameras,
however Lee kindly supplied us with these images.
Sad as it was that the creature died, it was an
amazing experience to be in the water with such a
magnificent animal.
Thanks to Foo Sze Lee for these images !
