Excellent subject, beautiful colors and strong composition. Cool feeling of outer space on this one!
Turtles' Flight
Took me a while to realise there is a second one in the background!
I set my strobes in position to light just the front of this very long tube sponge. All of the sudden, this graysby swam up from the far back of the tube and checked me out, then just as quickly disappeared back down into deep recesses of the sponge.
Decided to top lit the Lettuce sea slug as it was "climbing" up a rock.
'Toothless Dinosaur'
I just got back from an evening date with this rather attractive Spotted Snake Eel (Ophichthus ophis) in Saint Lucia. After about half an hour it got tired of my company and yawned...which made me happy.
Fight or Flight?
School of Boga flees from the chasing Yellowtail Snapper
Splash down!
Crab in an anemone
'Into the Trench'
Sweepers scatter as I make my way through the famous Rosemond's Trench.
Found this little cutie where I work. Two seahorses have been found on the reef and have been there for at least a month now.
'The Line-Up'
Juvenile Reef Squid stay close together just under the surface in St Lucia.
Happy Shark Week. A kissable mug.
Epiphany
Litle friend in purple, Turneffe Island Belize
Juvenile Boxfish. This boxfish was bobbing and around coral and sponges, but nothing that was an attractive background. So I dialed up my aperture to f/3.2 to make a soft background.
