"Anglerfish"


Galice Hoarau won a 7 or 8 nights liveaboard trip for two in Raja Ampat or Komodo


 

The Story: Large female anglerfish (Lophius piscatorius) can be regularly observed in Arctic Norwegianfjords in the autumn. I was lucky to meet this one when she was swimming up from deeperwaters looking for a place to hide and hunt. Anglerfish are not shy and will let photographers come very close.
