Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Between the floods, earthquakes, volcano eruptions and hurricanes already taken place this year, I’m starting to think the planet may have had enough of us. 😩 000
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 15/06/2026I probably look at the social media ban from a slightly different lens than others however after we found out my (then) teenage brother was being groomed via social media and having had friends who were pushed towards suicidal intentions from it, I’m happy to see today’s proposal. 100
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 25/03/2026Definitely feeling this today! Last week I turned off my heating, today I’ve turned it on again! 😂 011
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 21/01/2026Missed the aurora on Monday night due to 🌧️ but managed to catch a faint red and green glow to the eye last night so grabbed the @omsystem.bsky.social camera out. While it’s been a busy couple of years, seeing it in the South west of the UK is still pretty rare. Still amazed every time it shows. 000
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 07/12/2025@octopus.energy I’ve seen lots of noise over the IOG fair usage policy being integrated as a key term on how charges are done. Are you speaking to charger manufacturers to stop them throttling charges? I’ve seen my Zappi charging our car at 6kw multiple times and nothing I have done to cause this. 100
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 01/11/2025Trying to plan a dive trip for my 40th with Indonesia leading the pack. However the logistical juggling required to get from one part to another so we can do 1 week in each area is blowing my brain so much I’m now too overwhelmed to book anything and will probably end up staying home! 😂 🦑 010
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 09/09/2025Well summer definitely ended this year didn’t it…. This week we’ve had the whole lot of autumn treats and it’s only Tuesday - sun, cloud, rain, hail and thunder & lightning. 000

Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 08/06/2025It’s World Ocean Day! Here’s a reminder that 70% of our world is ocean, most of it not yet explored. In the areas that are often visited there is plenty of evidence that, even without seeing it all, it’s worth protecting. #worldoceanday #marinelife 🦑 #underwater #scuba 1207

Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 04/06/2025As it’s national ocean month I’d be remiss to not share some more photos. For the sake of conservation and the possibility it’s still there I won’t share location on this one but to say there was happy dancing on finding this is an understatement #marinelife 🦑 #scuba #underwaterphotography #travel 1132
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 26/05/2025Home from an awesome trip to Malta and more learning curves with the camera set up. Sharing one of my fave photos from the trip. While #marinelife is still a little sparse in Malta, it’s good to see some changes being put into limit over tourism. #diving #scubadiving #malta #travel 0142

Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 29/03/2025Late post this week thanks to being on day 4 of suspected food poisoning from a Dominos Pizza… A little moray eel peeking out from below some interesting corals. The eyes remind me of the googly eye often used on objects for comedic effect 😂 #marinelife 🦑 #underwaterphotography #scubadiving 4315

Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 07/03/2025A weird looking little fella for this week. I almost missed him as his shell was so well disguised in with the surrounding area. It was the yellow and blue flashes that caught my eye. #scubadiver #underwaterphotography #marinelife 🦑 #andamansea 2285
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 05/03/2025About 4 years ago I had an idea to mount my awesome dive map onto a magnet board surrounded by magnets from our dive holidays. Today I made it a reality and realised I need more holidays 🤣 7 destinations in 7.5 years! Hopefully more to come! #scubadiver #travel #scubadiving #holidays 010
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 28/02/2025Back to the sea slugs this week with a lovely Phyllidia varicosa This seemed to be the most common of the Nudi’s that were present in the Similan and Surin area of Thailand. #nudibranch #seaslug #marinelife 🦑 #scubadive #underwaterphotography 0306
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 27/02/2025It’s only when we finally get a sunny day that I realise how much the shorter days and damp British weather affects my moods. So nice seeing the sunshine again! 020
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 18/02/2025I’d never seen a cowrie shell that wasn’t a decorative item so I may have got a little excited when I spotted this tucked in the rocks on a slope, especially when I realised they’re actually naturally shiny! 🤣 I don’t know if anything was living inside as I didn’t dare disturb it 🦑 #marinelife 1190

Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 08/02/2025This weeks picture is probably only one creature higher than the goby on annoying things to try to capture! Its uncanny ability to disappear is as incredible to see as frustrating to photograph! I present the Christmas tree worm. #marinelife 🦑 #scubadiver #scubadiving #underwaterphotography 1321
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 01/02/2025Forgot to share yesterday, so here’s this weeks picture a day late. Another for the #nudibranch collection. This was only about 1cm long!!! Unfortunately I’ve been unsuccessful in identifying the species of this one. #andamansea #marinelife 🦑 #underwaterphotography #scuba 0396
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 27/01/2025#bluesky Community. I need a little dopamine boost after some crappy news about impending restructures and redundancies at the end of Q1 and the outlook of the UK jobs market being a bit crap.

Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 24/01/2025 In light of the news about the mass bleaching events that have been seen during this extremely harsh El Niño period I thought I’d share a more happier reef health picture taken around Richelieu rock. #thailand #richelieurock #marinelife #corals #scubadiving 🦑 #saveouroceans 1211
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 23/01/2025And the outcome of the autumn budget are now starting to be realised. It was always going to end with roles being cut to close the gap on 2024 vs 2025 payroll bill. I just wonder now how deep the cuts will go. 000

I’m interested in potentially looking at volunteering my time to help a marine/reef conservation based charity as a non exec. What do I need to demonstrate/have on my cv to get noticed? 000
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 20/01/2025Next trip officially booked…back to Malta in May and finally getting to dive with my brothers. Also considering whether a revisit to Egypt is needed..Would it be wrong to book a second trip for autumn this year before even having gone on the first? 🤣 260

Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 10/01/2025Another #andamansea photo. I wasn’t expecting this trip to be quite about the macro stuff but it really gave me chance to focus on how to photograph the small stuff, this #nudibrach (Risbecia pulchella?) was about 5cm long. Tiny compared to the details seen by the camera. #marinelife 🦑 #scubadiving 2384
Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 06/01/2025A Spanish dancer egg ribbon.

Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 03/01/2025Back in the UK and sorting through photos. As Jan is usually a pretty sucky month. Here’s a happy porcupine fish to stave away the blues. Taken at Richelieu Rock in Thailand. #marinelife 🦑 #underwaterphotography #scubadiving #puffafish #porcupinefish 1260

Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Potentially a hawksbill turtle? Taken last week during our trip to Thailand, I couldn’t risk getting any closer through fear of annoying 3 other divers with GoPro’s/cameras 🤣 #turtle #marinelife 🦑 #scubadiving #underwaterphotography 2152

Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 19/12/2024Weighed my underwater camera set up before packing it. Nearly 5kg on land!! And that’s with a baby camera! Had to add the additional two floats arms on so now it’s very slightly negatively buoyant in fresh water, not long until I see how it performs in the sea 😁 #scubadiver #underwaterphotography 130

Donna 🤿🫧 @littledj.bsky.social · 05/12/2024Probably one of my fave European countries I’ve visited. Berlin is so full interesting history, I could probably add 20 photos and not do it justice.
