More fish photos

I am wading through the 1000+ photos I took and picked out some more fish pictures.  The first two are species I had already posted, but these are much better shots.  The first was taken while snorkeling at Tortagonia.  The second was taken at outer Penguin Spit on the dive where I was just keeping an eye out for sharks, but otherwise was free to take photographs while Doug was on the hunt for coral recruits in parrotfish divots.  After this dive I told Doug he had fulfilled my request for at least one fun dive.  Doug's response to this request had been that all his dives were fun, you just had to look up occasionally.

Chevron Butterflyfish
Chaetodon trifascialis


Oval Butterflyfish
Chaetodon lunulatus


Here is one more butterfly fish.  I took this while Doug was doing a fish count which meant I couldn't use the flash.  This would have been a great shot with more vivid colors if the flash had been on.

Ornate Butterflyfish
Chaetodon ornatissimus


Here are a few more fish photos.

Peacock Hind
Cephalopholis argus


Trumpetfish
Aulostomus chinensis


Bluefin trevally
Caranx melampygus
