izardJust got back from vacation. I've spent most of the time 1-2 meters under water taking pictures of colorful fish and corals.

The bluish-black fish was one of the most interesting ones: it always tends to guard it's coral from trespassers, but I am not quite certain about how it kept the list of offenders. Some times I was in, some times I was not.

My wife usually finds my hobbies too technical, but this time she even managed to take a somewhat worthwhile under water picture by herself:
