Clownfish in Anemone
by JohnS
In the days before digital it was just too expensive for amateurs to take endless shots hoping for that one 'perfect' photo. On this particular occasion I remember shooting off half a roll. I don't think I'd ever done that before, but looking back now I guess it was worth it.

Indian Walkman (Solenostomus paradoxus)
This scorpionfish was getting a bit excited as I tried to get close for a good shot. It shows the colourful wings quite nicely.
Christmas trees
These colourful worms can be seen everywhere on the coral around Perhentian island in Malaysia.
Leopard Nudi (Risbecia tryoni)
Nudibranches are among my favorite subjects for macro photography, they don't move (at least not much) and are very colourful.
Jenkins' Whipray
This big ray just stays under the same coral all the time, so I just had to wait for a day with decent visibility to take a picture of it.
