These Signal Gobies (Coryphopterus signipinnis) were really cute, swimming in little jerky movements and as they did so, they lowered their top and bottom sail fins. Annoyingly, they just moved off every time I got a good focus lock..¸> <((((º>

1/250 at f13 105m ISO 200. This was taken in 3.5m of water with me hanging onto Deddy, my dive guide, for support and shooting one handed. Luckily this fish was perfectly positioned and I knew I had the shot immediately.
