Sea snake! They are not what you want to find while collecting.

A very early morn collecting of sea fans at roughly 20 minutes after sun rise brought a few surprises!
The first was two sharks doing something that turned the shallows to nearly mud, so that was gotten away from quickly.
The while free diving along a shallow drop off a sea snake was right there near my face.
Once composed I got a couple of pics, but not too close, it didn't like that, lol.
For a spot right near a very popular swimming spot, with sting rays, sharks, sea snake and stone fish, once I reached the shore I didn't have the heart to tell any one what was just out from them.
The start of the day.
