Spot the Fish

[Ruu]

The attached photo does genuinely contain a fish. It's one (more)example of why I probably shouldn't be allowed to take a camera diving. It was taken in Dahab if anyone is interested. I assure you that it doesn't all look this bad - I was swimming back in over some tidal shallows and spotted the aforementioned subject of the composition. It was taken with a disposable Fujifilm camera at approximately 0.5m depth - if you want to know the settings then:

a) There weren't any and
b) You need help.

Bonus points for identifying the species of fish in question.

Is it a small pipe of gar fish at the centre of the shot ??

That's not so bad. I thought my disposable u/w shots turned out a lot worse than yours. Especially the ones I took in Cabo it was not very good weather everything just looks blue.

I found the pipe fish in your pic too just took me a minute.

That was one of my better shots actually. There were a couple that I was pretty happy with in around 60 exposures. Thats why I am (a) buying a camera that doesn't get taken apart during photo processing and (b) going digital with a decent amount of memory. In some of my pictures I couldn't even snap the ground properly...

And yes, it is a pipefish in the middle of the picture.
