A tiny whip coral goby found hanging around the Maldives (sounds a perfect life to me!)

Mike this one really pops, I like it very much. The fish is shown in great detail. What is the fish on? Are those little tentacle jobbies anenomies or is it one tentacle of a larger anenome?

Hi Mike - Love the vibrance and deep colors of this one. I could see an alternate version that is a tighter pano, losing about 2/3 of the space above and half of the space below. It seems it is paying off for you to revisit some of your older images.

TFS,
Rachel

Cheers Jon, this is a strand of hard coral called a whip coral, all the little white parts are part of the same singular structure

Another belter Mike!! There i something about the colours in your UW images that speaks to me,it's the vibrance I think,I'm not sure really they just grab me time after time.

I quite like Rachel's idea of the plano. Bar that nowt to change for me

This is superb, Mike. Such striking colours!

Love the almost transparent little goby as well as the whip coral and its little "protrusions".

Wonderful detail, nicely composed too. Rachel's idea sounds great though, I would try it:w3

Your underwater images are just awesome:cheers:

Kind regards,
