A female glass shrimp with eggs. Mum-to-be
Roughback shrimp, have to look closely just to be sure I saw them in the first place. They can grow up to max 1.15"
"Eye See You"
An Octopus takes cover within the reef.
"Fingerprints"
Fingerprint Cyphoma are generally a rare find. I was very excited to find two together.
"Open Wide"
A Red Lip Blenny standing his ground on the South Side of Grand Cayman.
shortlistedShortlisted!
"Vibrance"
Possibly the most vibrant critter I have seen in Cayman.
Flying with rays
Runner Up - worthy of note but not a medal winner - an equal 4th place if you like! Runner Up 2015

Final RoundThrough to 2015 awards final round judging
Gaudy clown crab blending in with the orange sponge. Camouflage is the key to survival.

Grunts stacking up at La Mesa.
"Playground"
A Green Sea Turtle swims around in the shallows just off of Spotts Beach.
"Floating"
Jelly in the Mangroves.
shortlistedShortlisted!
"Hairy Face"
A portrait of a Neck Crab sitting on a purple rope sponge.
"Framed"
A Squat Anemone Shrimp framed by two arms of an anemone.
shortlistedShortlisted!
"Purple Arms"
I love the color of the Pederson Cleaning Shrimps arms, especially when matched with a black background.
"Glowing"
A blenny isolated with a bright background.
shortlistedShortlisted!
"Two Worlds"
I saw this upside down Jelly pulsating close to the surface while on a paddle in the mangroves. I love how close to the surface he was for this shot.
shortlistedShortlisted!
"Crazy Eyes"
Close up of a Blenny. Achieved with Subsea +10 and +5 stacked on a 100mm macro lens.
Coral polyps at night. I floated down below the coral and shot upward, one strobe angled from the side to provide texture and illuminate the back tentacles, and the other strobe giving a touch of fill light. These are the actual colors of the coral.
"Orange Crush"
I loved the colors that this Triple Fin had chose to sit around,
"Goldy"
This golden fish was so small. It is sitting on a Purple Rope Sponge on the edge of the wall.
"All Smiles"
A 3-tank trip finishing up in Red Bay put us in the prime spot to look for some Red Lip Blenny action.
"Say Ahh"
A colorful Blenny close up.
"Fin Up"
A large Triple Fin Blenny sitting on a sponge with nice texture.
"Out in the Open"
Not often do I see Secretary Blenny's away from their hole. This is the second time I have seen a Blenny in this exact spot with no hole in sight. I'm thinking it must be the same guy.
"Clean Green"
A Green Moray gets a little cleaning session from a Cleaning Gobe.
"Stare Down"
A Roughhead Blenny shot with a +10 Diopter.
"Purple Nest"
Two Tritonia on a Purple Sea Fan.
