SuperMarina's photos with the keyword: Cozumel

I don't know how much time and energy I've spent trying to get a shot of these guys that at least is almost in focus, but it is considerable. In the old days (meaning before November this year) I used a Nikon AW1, which is convenient and waterproof, but has relatively slow autofocus and a tiny little sensor. So I've considered buying a housing for my D500 for a while, thinking that would improve the odds. In the end I bought a housing for the Z6 since it has a larger sensor and better resolution. The results still don't impress but the image quality is better now.

Very young Yellowtail Damsels have more spectacular colors than the adults, but they are almost impossible to photograph so I gave up and tried an adult instead. After color-correcting the image the spots ended up looking far more purple than they appear in reality.

This guy really has a face only a mother could love!
