great behavior shot
Even the fish know how to count until 8 !
Eyes of Medusa
Lemon Sharks at Tiger Beach seem to enjoy being the center of attention during every dive. Great Smiles always!
It has a Tongue! Who knew a fireworm had a tongue. Just goes to show, if you observe a critter long enough- you will find out amazing things about it.

This image of a baby Hawksbill Turtle was a hard one to get as he flapped his flippers with excitement in anticipation of being released into the wild as we crossed the Gulf Stream into the Bahamas.

A side trip to Anhinga Trail in Everglades national Park. This Alligator decided to pop up suddenly- teeth and all! Far too many alligators to even consider diving there.

Jim Abernethy gets a close shot of a Tiger Shark right under the boat at Tiger Beach - Bahamas
caught in the lights
At first, I thought this was the red-est scorpion fish that I'd ever found, but his wing span was different. He bristled -reminding me of one of those desert lizards. Turns out, its a Barbfish- related to scorpions. So alien looking.
Fireworms have always been a source of pain, diving in a muck dive world, so I got to wondering, what do they look like from the victim's perspective? They are beautiful, and if I saw this coming at me, ... I wouldn't run, ... but stare in awe.
Sharks in a Blue Hole.
tube worm extravaganza
"I said no more pictures!" a sand perch displays tonsils as a warning- come no closer!

Diving at Tiger beach often offers real closeup photo opportunities with large sharks. This Tiger Shark was very interested in our presence while diving at Hammertime Reef near Tiger Beach - Bahamas
Headshield slugs migrate into the Blue Heron Bridge, I think a couple of times per year. Their striking colors make them easy to see, yet their constant movement makes them a challenge. This is a close up of the face shield.
Holding your breath until you turn blue? eh?? Well, it seems that a normal Seaweed Blenny will turn a brilliant shade of blue after tackling a fireworm. Hmm, guess some like it hot & spicy! Mmmm, yum! Chaaaa.
What can I say, I love seahorses.
TIger Beach is patrolled by Tiger Sharks and the Lemon Sharks, this Tiger comes in to investigate!
A cruising eagle ray at Cocos Island gets the attention of an inquisitive diver.
Something ethereal about the back lighting of this Hairy Blenny caught by surprise in a cross fire of lights which dubiously occured as a result of several photographers trying to photograph a seahorse on the other side of my subject.
I love Seahorses. So delicate. The intricasies within their design reveal only more design.
