Honorable Mention Compact Macro

"Leaf Scorpionfish"

Curtis won a $100 gift certificate from Bluewater Photo or Bluewater Travel

The Story:  This photo was taken from a live-aboard, during a night dive around the Komodo Islands at a dive sight called Pink Beach. Setting up this shot I wanted to highlight the green tunicates against a dark background to create contrast insuring that this usually cryptic fish would really stand out.

Location:  Komodo, Indonesia

Camera: SeaLife DC1400 (F9.6, 1/60, ISO 100) with Dual SeaLife SeaDragon Strobes and SeaLife Pro Video Light.
