Beautiful shot, with pretty good focus - assuming it was shot through the aquarium glass. I already knew that info about seahorses - a rare time I didn't learn from your notes!

Never knew that seahorses shared the birthing process! Your fine and off-centre composition allows us an enjoyable look at one. Wonder what his lady friend looks like? Exposure and sharpness are good. Well done!

    Thank you very much! The males and females look pretty much the same except the female has more of a P shape to her lower body (males are more of a D shape) and of course the male has a birthing pouch (broodpouch) beneath his abdomen.

Very nice close up capture of this seahorse. Really like the blue background with the blue highlights and details of the seahorse. I saw something on tv where they were changing colors before. It was cool. Interesting notes where the male goes through pregnancy. Something different. We like to see the photo of you snorkeling with the fish and stingrays lol.

A wonderful shot that shows the sea horse in perfect details -your explanation is excellent as it becomes a teaching shot - super camera setting sand excellent capture through a glass window - perfect contrast and lighting -the deep blue water color is the perfect contrast to let the tiny guy stand out in perfection - a perfect composition, very neat and attractive , well done

Ive always lived theses creatures. I would have t9 gyess that he is d8splaying a colir of blue? This is a great shot! I love the little fins he has on his back and how he seems to be just hanging out there! Great job!
