Could these be the last shots from my D60?

When I was jumping off our boat at Bunaken shore on the fourth day, I landed on hard sharp rocks. Pain shot through my right foot and I lost balance. My camera bag took a dive and drank some saltwater! My right foot had a few "holes" but my D60's dead! It's now in the "hospital"... not sure if it can be revived.

Anyway, enjoy the pics shot in Manado, mostly shot in and around the Bunaken Island.

Jeff's shade was so cool..cos we could see ourselves on it! :p

The only time we got to sit on this lil boat was on our arrival to the resort. The rest of the time we walk in the water.

View from the resort's restaurant.

Cool divers getting ready for the day's dive.

The guys posing with sunset in the background.

More sunset pose.

It was only 5.23pm and the sun was retiring...

Sunset at Bunaken Island.

This was the kampung-styled family bungalow where most of us slept.

Early morning view of the sea.

Another day's dive with our divemasters Ferdi and Son.

The jetty at Bunaken Island.

Oh look! Is that a sea snake Ps John caught??

Siladen Island. Said to be the spot containing the most number of coral species in a single place, in the world. The clear blue waters was enough to make me drool!

More pictures with our divemasters Dedi, Son & Ferdi.

By this last day, my DSLR was dead. Still I wanted to see the sunrise. Got up as early as 5am. I soon realized "Hang on, my phone can take pictures too!" So, these sunrise shots were captured with my 3.2 megapixel camera phone. This shot was captured at 5.15am.

5.28am. If only my D60 could wake up :(

5.42am.

5.46am. By this time Ps John & Jessica were awake. I took more pics using his Canon G9 from that time onwards.


More pics were uploaded to my Facebook and Fotki sites. I'll get the underwater shots from Ps John soon.
