Tristan is liveaboard photo winner
19 January 2010
Tristan Jones' striking image of a diver with a shoal of goatfish has surfaced at the top of an outstanding batch of entries in the 2009 onboard photo contest organised by Red Sea liveaboard operator blue o two.
Second place in the contest, which featured more than 30 weekly winners, went to Saeed Rashid for his photo of four dolphins. Third was won by Liz Rackham for her portrait of a yawning scorpion fish.
Tristan's underwater photography skills have won him a free trip on a blue o two liveaboard in 2010.
Said blue o two dive guide and competition organiser James Dawson, who judged the entries along with award-winning underwater photographer Alex Mustard: "There was a particularly high standard this year but these three really stood out".
Short-listed images from the competition can be viewed in an online gallery on the blueotwo website, which also gives details of the forthcoming 2010 competition.
