HM Mirrorless Macro Ocean Art 2015 Lynn Wu

Honorable Mention, Mirrorless Macro

Lynn Wu

“Clownfish Eggs”

 

Lynn won a 7-night dive package with unlimited beach diving & bure upgrade at Wananavu, Fiji!

 

The story:  This photo is of the eggs when they are quite close to hatching. The baby clownfish look like tiny shards of glass with big eyes. Great to see so many smiling faces. I drop the flash and slow shutter speeds, avoiding using too-bright of flash.

Location:  Anilao, Philippines

Camera:  Olympus E-PL5, Olympus 60mm macro lens, Olympus housing, dual Inon z240 strobes, SubSee +10 diopter

Settings:  ISO 200, f/16, 1/60
