More from my recent swim at Fort de Soto. I usually like to have the entire subject in focus, but I really like the fall-off effect here as it forces out attention to the face and the fish. I usually avoid
the nictitating membrane, but I don't find it distracting here since we can still see the pupil clearly. I like the bubble, so I won't clone it.
