Puffer with Cigar

This pufferfish from the Dominican Republic was puffing on
a local "Cohibe" cigar. Too bad he didnt follow the Sturgeon General's advice.
He musta been hard of herring.
Actually a mischevious divemaster stuck a piece of coral in his mouth.

Canon PowerShot S40
1/250s f/4.5 at 7.1mm with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

This is wonderful. Very clever of the diver, and nice capture on your part.

Eli, there are so many wonderful images that you have taken! I have a hard time getting a shot to turn out on dry land in full sunlight. I cannot imagine how difficult it must be floating about under water!
