Great set Larry!! Love the squid shots. Your reputation is intact, that's a fine whale shark butt shot (also a good eyeball shot). Seriously these are all terrific. Wonderful set of Caribbean critters. ++Ken++

"Does that Remora make my butt look big?" Seriously, shooting a fish butt that big was quite a challenge, and I didn't take it lightly!

Nice shots.

'Cause it's a Scrawled Cowfish. At least that's what it was ID'd as for me. I dive the Caribbean maybe once a year and know nothing of the critters, so generally I flip through the ID books at the resort and ask the divemaster. The two seem really similar, but if you check over the eyes, you will find a pair of little horns.
