Clown fish family and tropical coral reef
Underwater photography of two clown fish from the Apo Island Marine Sanctuary; Oriental Negros province, Dauin, near Dumaguete City, Philippines. This underwater shot was taken on a coral reef damage assessment with the Silliman University Marine Lab after a particularly strong typhoon hit Apo Island. This is still one of my favorite clown fish photos from Apo, and actually was used for a post card project I designed to raise money for the sea turtle conservation program on the island. Apparently the clown fish post card design was the most popular of the four that were printed.

Snorkeling underwater with a tomato clown fish in the Apo Island Marine Sanctuary; Oriental Negros province, Dauin, near Dumaguete City, Philippines.

Nemo Clown Fish - Bohol, Philippines
Underwater photography of a small clown fish like the one from "Finding Nemo". This clown fish photo was taken on a field survey to the less-developed side of Bohol with the Silliman University Marine Lab. Generally the visibility for underwater photography on this trip was pretty low, but the great thing about clown fish photography is that you can place the camera close to the anemone and reduce some of the problems with backscatter because there is less water between you and the clown fish.
