- Notes From the Field: “I used a 105mm macro lens shooting at 1/125 F8 using the Nikon D100. I thought this picture was interesting because you could see the parasites in the mouth of the clownfish. The parasites are common in clownfish but difficult to capture in a picture… Underwater photography is my real passion.” — Ken Traub
Editor’s Review:
“Clown fish are one of the most popular underwater subjects I see submitted to our annual Ocean Views photo competition. In this shot, I particularly like the way I can see through the membrane that protects the eye of the the fish. And, of course, the bright green color and shapes of the anemone the clown fish is using as a safe resting spot brings additional saturation and design to the overall image. It is also interesting that the shooter is probably only inches from the fish when this photo was made. ” — Steve Freligh
