Fabulous Photos Friday under the Caribbean Sea!

A very exciting find! A slender pygmy filefish! An inch or so, perfectly hidden.

My last visit to Cozumel was wonderful. I spent it with friends, did yoga, and went diving and snorkeling A LOT.

 Enjoy looking at the fabulous creatures and scenery you can see under the waves in the beautiful

Mexican Caribbean!

Looking up from below is a beautiful sight.
A squirrel fish with a couple of cleaner shrimp.
Looks like the surface of the moon, doesn’t it?
Here is some scale: the pinnacles and mountains of coral on Palancar Reef are fantastic, just unreal in their beauty and size!
Half under!
Beautiful siphonore (jelly)
A hunting yellow ray with buddy.

Looks like a smile doesn’t it? Pretty funny looking Green Moray!
Gorgeous lobster. They are amazingly colorful, and so alien!!

I love turtles, what can I say?
This is a whitespotted filefish….I think they are pretty cool fish!
Soft corals…they almost look like weeping willows, don’t they?

Hope you enjoyed today’s show and tell!  Some of these are not as appreciated as they should be.  I love photographing the little stuff!

Have a great weekend!11
