Starfish

A few pictures of starfish from around Koh Tao...

These first two are Walking Feather Stars, which are all over the place during night dives but rarely out during the day (both shots are from the same night dive). They don't like light and when you shine a flashlight on them they curl up.



This next one is a Crown Of Thorns Starfish. These guys are cool to look at but not nice to see as they are pests that destroy the coral.
