Sometimes you must stand in a strange position to be able to take the picture you would like to have. For this one, it was the case because I wanted to have a blue background and this Pterois was next to a wall.

This image of a Barracuda was taken during a safety stop off Nassau Bahamas. The dive site was the Willaurie wreck.

I was taking several pictures of the turtle when this Spanish Hogfish made his appearance. I guess he wanted his picture taken, too
