  • This odd-looking character is a Clown Anglerfish, Antennarius maculatus, a.k.a. Warty Frogfish. Although capable of swimming, it usually crawls across the substrate using its extraordiarily dextrous ventral and pectoral fins, which can actually grip objects like hands and feet.  Andaman Sea.

  • Clown Anglerfish / Warty Frogfish, Antennarius maculatus.  Apparently confident in its camouflage, it made no effort to get away, allowing this close-up portrait.  The macro zoom was especially useful here, enabling me to zoom in tight (roughly the 120mm position) without having to adjust strobe or camera position. Thailand, Andaman Sea, Richelieu Rock. Nikon F100 in Seacam housing, Nikkor 70-180mm Macro Zoom lens, twin Ikelite 200 strobes, Ultra Light arms, Fujichrome Velvia 50 film. f-25, 1/60 sec.

  • frog312: A colorful Clown Anglerfish / Warty Frogfish, Antennarius maculatus, displays its ?lure? in an effort to attract prey.  For this cooperative subject, I used the macro zoom at the 70mm position, allowing me to get physically very close and minimize the amount of water between lens & subject.  Thailand, Andaman Sea, Richelieu Rock. Nikon F100 in Seacam housing, Nikkor 70-180mm Macro Zoom lens, twin Ikelite 200 strobes, Ultra Light arms, Fujichrome Velvia 50 film.  f-25, 1/60 sec.
