“Juvenile Fish”
The Story: This picture was taken during my black water dive. Before we dive, we need to use the brightest lamp and put them under the water for twenty minutes in order to attract the planktons and small species. There are many curiosity in doing black water dive. These creature that you will encounter during black dive can’t be seen in coral reef dive. This juvenile fish was attracted by the light on my camera. I moving back all that time When these juvenile fish swim towards me, at this this time i take a unique photo of this creatures. I am very happy that my compact camera can take this kind of cute creature.
