just a lump of chain? No, Andrew made it into a photo by this diagonal composition. The receding size of the chain links pull your eye in (we call a lead line). Not bad for a 'nothing' subject eh!

This photo is of a sargeant major fish (the one with the stripes on his back) and two blue parrotfish (of the family Scaridae). Thed blue colour indicates that theyare male but from here it cannot be determined whether or not they are supermales.
This fish is known as the Sargeant Major (Abudufduf Saratallis) because of the stripes on his back. He lives on the reefs in mid-water, frequently in groups, and will often accompany you as you go diving.
