Behind the Shot: While diving in Anilao, the macro capital of the Philippines, my spotter showed me a seemingly empty beer bottle in the sand. But there was something living inside. I started shooting the lemon goby that was living there. After a while, I noticed a shadow in the background, and a few seconds later, I saw the juvenile lionfish coming out. I pushed the shutter right when the goby started to yawn and the lionfish looked in the camera.
Camera Gear: Panasonic Lumix LX100 in a Nauticam housing; Nauticam CMC-1 lens; Inon Z-240 with optical snoot (Iardino); Inon S2000 with snoot for backlight
Settings: f/10; 1/4000; ISO 200
Prize: SeaLife Sea Dragon 2000F photo-video light
