Took this when I was diving in Zanzibar. I love photography underwater. It can be such a tricky process though! You have the current swaying you around, you have to have your buoyancy just right, then you have to hold your breath so the bubbles dont scare the fish away which in turn makes you rise because there is air in your lungs. You cant touch the sea floor because it kills the coral when you touch it, also fire coral STINGS like crazy! You can get so adsorbed in what your doing that its very easy to lose your group. Just managed to get it focused and stay somewhat still to catch him. He was a tiny little fella about the size of my little finger.

Just had this in the VB. Thought it was remarkable in color and clarity. Scored high from me. Thanks for a favorite.

Just an old "Grampa" who still has a Kodak "Box" camera kicking around the attic ... learning and enjoying the wonders of modern digital photography.
