Blue Bahama Fish
Uploaded: May 04, 2009 09:36:57
I shot this pic while snorkeling in the Bahamas. This little blue fish followed me everywhere I went! I used a dry brush filter and boosted the saturation for effect in Adobe Elements 7.

Excellent shot and treatment, Marta. How do you create rapport with a fish? #1123170Marta J. Baldwin May 04, 2009
Thank you very much Michelle! It was a really funny experience with this little guy. I'm pretty sure he felt like he was the reef 'watch dog' and, at first, was swimming around me very quickly but after a little bit he realized I was just there to watch and kind of calmed down and let me get a few decent shots. #7484391Chris Ebben May 09, 2009
