Tropical Striped Triplefin on Hard Coral
Story behind the shot
The Solomon Islands are one of those places in the World where you’ll still find healthy coral. On one of our dives we were excited to spot a huge, maybe 15’ patch of honeycomb coral (Diploastrea heliopora). I swam in close to it with my dive light to admire the patterns in the coral, and spotted a tiny little red fish perched on the coral - the Tropical Striped Triplefin (Helcogramma striatum) obviously made a handsome subject.
This photograph has won several awards and hung in exhibits around California.
