Tesselated Blenny (Hypsoblennius invemar)
I was working on trying to make his spots turn into bokeh. Managed it at 5.6
Moody Froggy
I love this little rough head blenny.
This Banded Butterflyfish just seemed love watching himself in my port.
This Christmas Tree Worm was a rather ugly brownish color when I first spotted it. But, when lit it because this beautiful red/white color and was breathtaking. This is without a dopter.
King of the Mountain
This honeycomb cowfish posed for me for quite a while...and followed me around, even when I wasn't shooting him. I was set up for macro, so I did the best I could with getting a portrait.
White christmas Tree worm from Bonaire taken in October. No diopter was used - this is with the Olympus m.zuiko 60mm macro lens only.
This very young (and small) goldentail eel was kind enough to pose for me in Bonaire on my last trip
I spent a lot of time the water this last trip, and this is a shot that I have had on my mind for about 2 years. I am proud to say I got it.No diopter, this is with the 60mm macro lens that Olympus makes.
I saw this shrimp and decided to try and shoot it, even though I had a gorgonian blowing in my face between my eyes and the LCD screen. It was fun working slowly and through the surge t get this image.
I saw this Christmas Tree Worm hanging down in front of a opening in the coral and thought, this will make an interesting shot/perspective. It worked and I really like it
Spotted Moray emerges from its lair.
Pedersoni Cleaner Shrimp and Anemone
Boga school in Curacao.
Another yellowhead jawfish cleaning house.
Squat shrimp in anemone.
Interesting color of this christmas treeworm
Flamingo tongue
Snake Eel
Spirobranchus giganteus
This was one of the most delicately coloured ones I have ever seen. Just a hint of peachy-apricot to it.
This is uncropped.
Longlure frogfish: Waiting a meal with its baited lure.
Longsnout seahorse
Cymothoid Isopods: Double trouble for this fish with a pair of cymothoid isopods hooked into each side of its jaw.
Spinyhead Blenny
this was taken in November in Bonaire...I thought the pattern on this Cyphoma gibbosum was quite unusual...and the contrast to the lavender rope sponge it was on was t me, the best.
