One of my favourites. Almost perfect. A bit too much background but otherwise fine. This is a lion fish. As you can guess from the vivid colouring, it is quite poisonous, but it doesn't tend to attack. Just sits in mid-water and waits to be photographed. Normally, those guys hang around corals or rocks, so you have more stuff on the picture than you like. But not this one. Actually, they are easy to photograph because they do not move fast, and, being poisonous, they also tend to be not very afraid of divers. In fact, however, there was a lot of small fish swimming about in the background. The Teacher photoshopped it away.
