[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Lionfish (Pteroisvolitans)

The lion-fish belongs to the Scorpion fish family.
This brightly coloured fish is usually found in coral reefs, especially in shallow waters hovering in caves or near crevices. Lion-fish have venomous fin spines that can produce painful puncture wounds.
Fatalities, however, are rare.

Welkom... This is a good start. Nice to see some underwater photos.

Pitty there is not much more to see of the fish, but that is understandable.

Always remember to try and get at the very least the eye of the animal in the shot and in focus.

I will give you a two for starters :-)
