The fish wanted pictures as well. Here in this amazing underwater view, we come upon an unplanned interplay between photography and marine life. The picture shows a fascinating fish that seems to have purposefully placed itself in front of the camera to produce nearly portrait-like composition. Perfect timing catches the fish in what looks to be a pose, with features clearly seen and direct lens engagement. This produces a funny and appealing situation when the aquatic subject seems to be as fascinated in being captured as the photographer is in catching it. The picture not only highlights the beauty of marine life but also the erratic character of wildlife photography, in which occasionally the subjects themselves seem to assist in producing the ideal shot. Together, the clean water, the fish's behaviour, and the composition together to produce an unforgettable picture that implies personality and intention in our underwater buddies.
