A Pepper Moray Eel looking out of his cave. They're not dangerous but will give you a little nip - got an unexpected one on the toe a few years ago!. This one popped his head out then did something I've not seen before with the frills on the neck - I'm guessing this is some kind of warning threat, so a shot with the mouth open and off to find another subject

Wow that's a really interesting shot, I like the natural frame and the exposure looks spot on. The frills on the neck make the image particularly interesting.

Hi Mike yet another very good UW shot .
I do love the red coral framing and the frilled neck of the Moray Eel .
Works very well all around ... nicely processed .

Hi Mike -- Great to have you posting here once again. I really liked the vibrant colours and the subject in its pose add to the overall content. Nice 3D feel to it as well.
Enjoyed viewing this one.

Very cool. Like how the eel is framed. The color of the coral on the left is killer. Details look great and exposure is spot on.

Very very cool shot. Love the coral framing as mentioned, and the pose / detail on the eel is great. A nice look at a world rarely seen as well. TFS
