From Blue Heron Bridge, Fla. this blue Pipe Fish is very shy and often hard to photograph. Pipefish are in the Seahorse (Syngnathidae) family and are cryptic bottom dwellers rarely seen by divers.

Hi

A very striking image that must have been a treat in frustration to capture

Thanks for the view
Matthew
