Great shot of Mr. Fish, Christi.
After looking at your pic, I could swear it was the same fish that Pedro pointed out to me when we were down in April. We were swimming along, and Petro was trying to show me a fish, he was pointing, and I was staring for like 1/2 a minute. Finally I saw what he was pointing at. He really blended in with the background. I think it was the same Mr. Fish! As cxg31s says, make sure you keep track of him until November for when we come down!

I just wanted to bring up an issue that frequently comes up on photography boards about editing other people's photos without permission--most people aren't aware of this "etiquette" issue.

My first reaction when reading your post was a forehead-smacking DUH! It hadn't crossed my mind that I was messing with someone's artistic creation.

It's all in the mindset. I'm a fish nerd and photography is mostly a way to record what I see for later analysis. My first reaction when seeing an underexposed photo, or even just one that has some detail of interest in a deep shadow, is to hit it with curves or levels to bring out the detail. Rarely do I post it.

Thanks for waking me up.

That is one butt-ugly fellow!! See you soon

I FINALLY got my very own Frog Fish picture Pedro found this guy yesterday morning with his group! I took nitrox students out yesterday afternoon with Pedro and his group...and he found him for us again!!! He's so ugly he's cute!

I have a few others I'll share once I get them uploaded! This was the 4th dive on my cmaera batteries (forgot to change them before I got on the boat) and by the time we got to this guy, batteries were so low I couldn't adjust any settings...so they aren't the best pics...but I got him!

Great shot. I always look for them and scorpion fish here but I've yet to see antennarius. (sp?) I saw them in the Philippines in strong current areas....like Cozumel I guess. Are they here too?

You mean like this guy? This was in Playa del Carmen this past weekend.
