OK. So, what underwater camera do you use? I have the Olympus TG-2. Never thought about the light. Have to try that next time. Very good photograph. Excellent focus and a good dof. Best of luck in the contest and thank you for sharing.

A beautiful picture of the Surgeon fish filling the frame with the flashlight catching & hi lighting their yellow dorsal fin & making it glow gold. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting with superb camera techniques & razor sharp focus.

I know it's your photograph without any doubts. I know this from your wonderful artist's notes to the panoramic crop to the exotic place this was shot in.

Fill the frame, YES...blue...YES and so full of patterns and movement.

Your visual signature strong....image strong. I like it.

Comment from momentsofjoy7351
Very nice underwater techs. Go-Pro...? Oh never mind - you said underwater camera and a flashlight. I think I have seen only one shot on FAR from a GoPro. This is quite the blue shot for the contest. Nice blue in the water... might not be the blue they are looking for. Nice blue in the fish... might not be the blue they are looking for!!! JK - I'm in a mood this evening. I tend to get disqualified from "color" contests. I think you have covered your "blue" bases. Great focus, exposure spot on. Nice natural composition - thanks for sharing and good luck!!!

thanks so much Debi for your nice contest;
never used GoPro; it was taken with an old waterproof Panasonic

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Witty title.
The photographer must be a medical worker before!
Aptly captured for the contest theme...
Nice blue & yellow contrast.
Clear bluish water.
Fine details & textures.
Best of luck in the contest!
Thanks for sharing...
