a different over/under Eric
How close is close enough when you are laying next to a scorpion fish? This close.
She is under the rather large anemone just hanging out. She kept peeking out to see if I was still there. Later, a juvenile false clown fish came out from behind her to see what was going on. It turned out, she was just protecting her young.
Gamberi imperatore

This juvenile batfish image was taken in back in 2007 in Palau. When we were resting in between dives we realized this little guy and went after her with our snorkels. Taken with D70 in Ikelite housing under natural light. F/14, 1/125 sec. exposure.

The contrast of the background was just too cool. The Philippines is home to some really different looking nudibranchs.
A rainbow of color on this Parrotfish. It was just hanging there drifting back and forth on a little coral head. It did not seem to mind that I was there or that I was taking pictures.

Hawkfish on Saipan
Porcelain crabs are not that big. This little guy was sitting in his anemone having a great time...just fishin'. I love the look on his face. It looks like he is slurping up the plankton he is fishing for.
Zebra Crab, photo taken @ Anilao, Philippines by Canon G9 & double macro lens.

A Battle Tank on the deck of the San Francisco Maru
Hermit crab...this little guy was scooting across the bottom. When he saw me and my camera, he stopped so I could get a couple of shots off. He then took off and was headed as fast as he could to somewhere.
A garden eel that caught my fancy. Took a lot of patience before I can come close enough to shoot it without spooking it out.

Porcelain Crab on anemone - His net is out and he is filtering for food.
