Thanks to all our customers for sending in their entries. The entries were of a very high standard, and the judging was tough - you can view all the entries from Bunaken and from Lembeh on Two FIsh Flickr.

Thanks also to our judge, Paul Lees, who has kindly offered to judge our 2009 Photo Competition as well.

More on Paul - British born writer and photographer, Paul Lees, has travelled extensively throughout Asia, gaining first-hand insight and absorbing local perspective along the way. With the qualification of Master Instructor under two scuba diving training agencies, Paul also has alot of first-hand experience in the diving world.

Numerous valuable experiences have been stored in the form of pictures and words, which have since appeared in many internationally acclaimed publications including New Holland's best selling coffee table presentations Top Dive Sites of the Indian Ocean, The Dive Atlas of the World and Diving with Giants, as well as Dorling Kindersley's Eyewitness Guide to Thailand. He is also currently spearheading the POCKET GUIDE series that includes the Pocket Guide DIVE Thailand.

Paul specialises in underwater photography, so when he is not engrossed with the range of POCKET GUIDE titles, he continues to pay attention to expanding his extensive image library on subjects both above and below the ocean surface.

He is also a regular contributor to regional and international scuba diving magazines, and has been involved in bringing the underwater world to the surface in the form of natural history documentaries and TV shows, including ABC Kane's The Living Edens and the BBC's Really Wild Show.
