The little fish was hanging out within the Sea Grass. Taken with a 105 on a Nikon D7000 over Christmas 2013. The Dive team from the Aiyanar Beach and Dive Resort were excellent.

Many fire urchins at this dive site. The knowledgeable dive guide was kind enough to point out this coleman shrimp for me to shoot. I had to be careful when shooting this photo because fure urchins were everywhere and it is a slope. Luckily for me the photo turned out okay. Need to do some cropping and post editing though but still I am a happy man.

Found this particular shrimp hiding in a small gorgonian coral while shooting something else. Thanks to the shrimp for jumping around that caught my attention. There were quite a few of them in the coral. Luckily I was using a compact camera so the setup is small enough for me to poke in for some shots. Not easy to shoot this small size creature close up as a beginner. Guess I was lucky.
