Vulcan - a photo on Flickriver

Vulcan

            This Weedy scorpionfish  (rhinopias frondosa), coming in a broad choice of colours, is considered by many as the Graal of underwater photography. To be frank, I find it to be a rather messy piece of fish. This specimen, however with its intense red colour made an interesting subject. Concentrating the light on its face allowed me to get rid of the disturbing background and gave it this fiery look.
