[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is the Nassau Grouper
Epinephelus striatus
Family: Grouper/Seabass-Serranidae
Itīs a common fish from Florida to south of Brazil. This fish is curious and we can get close if approached slowly. Itīs a big problem to this guys, because this curiosity makes them easy targets for underwater spearfishing. I shot (with my camera!) this one in Belizeīs Atoll Lighthouse, diving the site "playground". And it is...
Regards!

Ola Jose!

Underwater photography - one of my dreams... Dark mood, great colours and first of all - very interesting subject in good pose. I like colours of this fish, especially orange mouth.

Hi Jose,
Excellent capture!
Very clear and sharp details,
the colours are also very nice.
Thanks for sharing!

Hi Jose,
An excellent shot on this Grouper. Your flash exposure looks great. The colors are beautiful and well saturated. Detail is very sharp. The overall composition and framingare perfect in this very clear water.
I hope to get to go to Belize and dive someday.
