Welcome to Mike Scotland's Underwater Photography site Sydney Fish

Hippocampus kellogsi is a migrant from Southern Queensland. It is the largest of the local Sea Horses at 18 cms. I moved back and used f11 here to light up the entire sea horse. Framing sea horses can be difficult as they sway back and forth in the surge and hide at cryptic angles, usually head down and behind shelter. You have to wait until they are in a better position and move strobes to allow light to penetrate throuigh the seaweeds etc.
