Great photos Odyssey, wonderfull to see these fish in their natural habitat.

The water looks so clear and clean. I will have to get my mask & snorkel and Nikonos out and check out my local streams.

Thanks, Graeme.

I made an expedition to Okinawa of the subtropics in the southernmost part of Japan two weeks ago.
I took a photo of a lot of fish underwater in a river over there.

as usual it is beautiful.
Tell me, the water level has dropped significantly?

impressive to see as much diversity
rivers of Japan are they protected?


Thank you my friend, you view the video underwater rivers of China?
