I like your photos, too.<BR/><BR/>@ Carmi - Underwater photography is challenging, yes, but worth the trouble.<BR/><BR/>@ Melanie - He does look posed. He swam right up to us, making us think that other divers must have fed him.<BR/><BR/>@ Natalie, no need to be scared of most reef fish, especially this guy.<BR/><BR/>@ Chris - Puff the Magic Fishy: I like that!<BR/><BR/>@ Serena - Thanks. We try to keep a balance between 'information' and 'fun'.<BR/><BR/>@ Shelia - Yes, as I mentioned above, it did swim right up to us -- a very friendly fishy, or else one with an overdose of curiosity.<BR/><BR/>@ Smarmoofus - Thanks for that link. I will check it out.<BR/><BR/>@ Gattina - I think this fish lives a little to deep for a kitty like Arthur to catch (unless he learns to use SCUBA). ;-}<BR/><BR/><BR/>@ ZJ - Yes - Puff fish, Pufferfish -- we've even heard them called balloon fish! When they get frightened they puff themselves out , presumably to make themselves look more imposing to their enemies.<BR/><BR/>@ Villager - I hope your son enjoys the photo. You can tell him that this one is too big to fit into his aquarium.<BR/><BR/>@ Tina - I hope you get an opportunity to try it some time.<BR/><BR/>@ Mary (the teach) - We enjoy your blogs as well. Thanks for your frequent visits and your support.<BR/><BR/>@ Sheila - Thanks. You do a wonderful job of presenting Hawaii to potential visitors on your blog. We both love your <A HREF="http://www.govisithawaii.com" REL="nofollow">Go Visit Hawaii</A> blog.<BR/><BR/>@ Kathy - Thank you. Actually, we thought he looked like he wanted to say "Will you play with me?" -- or, more likely, "Do you guys have anything to eat?"<BR/><BR/>@ Harlekwin - Thanks, we think he's a cutie, too. We were not very deep at all -- maybe 25 feet at most. The photo was taken in natural light, without a strobe. It was a very sunny day, and the water was very clear, so a lot of light came through from above. Flashing the strobe often frightens the subjects -- and then you get photos of fish tails! -- so when there is sufficient natural light to do the job, I use it.<BR/><BR/>BobbieBNShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10709074385552082635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9067507179347221008.post-620924399543688722007-11-28T08:39:00.000-10:002007-11-28T08:39:00.000-10:00Looks like he has something to say!

I always enjoy visiting to see what beauty or cutie you've posted for the week. This one falls into the cutie category. <BR/><BR/>I clicked on the image to make it bigger because I love investigating the details. Because of the sandy bottom and the formations of lava/coral/rocks and some of the color I spotted on the fish I was wondering how deep you were when you met up with this cutie?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for visiting my site and commenting today. Yes, the leaf was a gingko biloba after the rain.
