I finally captured the changing color tonight in a way that non-divers can appreciate from a photo.

Fantastic constrasting shots, Calvin! SUPERB!

I can see these framed on a wall seperated only by matting....it'd look GREAT!

The shots were taken in quick succession, just a second or so apart. Actually, the iridescent one was first, then the little guy got comfortable and showed off his red/purple color.

Very beautiful Calvin! I agree, you should frame those.. They'd win some kind of contest, I bet..

If you didn't know better, you'd swear they were just photoshopped- until you notice slight differences between the posture and background! I love seeing pics of these!

I agree with Gillyweed Calvin. you better enter those in some sort of scub photo contest, or best of photos for the month. You'd definitely get published.
