I was very fortunate to see these two Black-Saddled Tobies spiraling upward in a mating ritual. I got a sequence of about a dozen shots before the action ended. Dauin, Philippines.

Nassau Grouper trying unsuccessfully to swallow a Blue Tang. The divemaster told me that eventually other predators would start nipping off pieces of the Tang. I doubt if either fish survived. Nikon N90s with 60mm lens.
