Spanish dancer, Monterey Bay C7070
Scorpionfish. It was perched on a rock so I was able to get below him and get a blue background. Heavy surge - trouble holding camera still. DX5000. Islamorada Key, Florida.
Galapagos Love. I'm honestly not sure exactly what these two sharks were doing, maybe just a fluke behavior I snapped at the right time, or maybe not...? Ha ha.
