What Are You?
(Photos of Peacock Mantis Shrimp.) There are several types of mantis shrimp in the Lembeh Strait, and most are easy to see and not easily intimidated by divers. The so-called “peacock” or “harlequin” mantis shrimp is beautifully colored in brilliant blues, green, red, and orange.

Grocery Shopping
Candid photos from Aertembaga Market, in Bitung (North Sulawesi, Indonesia): A visit to the Aertembaga Market in Bitung is not to be missed. A young man in one stand dared Nancy to take his elder’s photo; the old man was diffident … until Nancy showed him the photo. Then everyone lit up, all smiles.

Fish for Dinner
(Photos from the fish market at Bitung.) The fish market in Bitung (on the Lembeh Strait, North Sulawesi, Indonesia) comes to life just after dawn. Fishermen, cooks, staff from local hotels and resorts along the Lembeh Strait, and ordinary husbands and housewives come together in a boisterous throng in the large open-air market facility next to the waters of the Lembeh Strait.
