I found this blenny on a shallow water, i was attracked by his funny face, try to getting a passport photo for him/her, i swam back and forth , he seemingly getting used to my camera for few seconds and got this shot finally.
It was one of the most demanding efforts to shoot this shot with the Inon Macro Wide angle of a Sargassum frogfish floating around in between some weed just below the surface.

Amongst my favourite photographic subjects in Saint Lucia is the Sailfin Blenny (Emblemaria pandionis). Only about an inch and a half long, this guy has got a lot of attitude to make up for it's size. -
