One With The Reef

            I found this little guy kickin' in the reef. I approached him slowly so he knew I wasn't threat to him.

I want to talk briefly about how we as a world community are affecting the oceans and reefs around the globe. Either by the trash we leave behind or the toxic run-off that flows into it. Now that everyone seems to be talking about being "green" with everything, lets now forget about all our friends living in the ocean. I've heard and seen stories about miles of flowing trash and fertilizer/etc run off that is killing the delicate coral reefs that are homes to so many living creatures.

I also want to thank all of you kind people who have left so many thoughtful comments on my photos over the years. Even though at times I may disappear from Flickr, I never forget the about all the creative people that made Flickr what it is today. 

Mahalo!
