Guess what it is ?

[scroll down]

Close up of Parrot Fish skin, taken during a night dive ( on Velvia Film, 105mm lens) . My very first trip as newbie under water photographer - Similans Islands. Not every ones cup of tea, but one of my favourites. Have tried since to get more abstracts like this since with little success.

If you have to explain, what the photo is......then it's a crap photo.

Waow, thanks. Which photography book is this stated or where can i gain such wisdom? Always willing to learn more how to make good photo's from the pro's.

I wouldn't have guessed that came from nature, it looks like a man made design/artwork.

I wonder if it tastes as good as it looks

Agreed........ the lighting is very good one this one, quite even from snout to tail.

^^ It is a nice photo but not mine. It was found from the internet. I wanted to know for myself if this fish is actually capable of such designs on its skin.

Yes, very beautiful . From Memory, mine was not that colourful (or i would have taken close ups of the yelllow & orange ). U can see my pic on this fish, more or less mid body where there fin and the body meet
