Under the Sea in the Fijian Reef by sadsweeper
198, May 30, 2008

Fish
 

 

My husband and I snorkeled in the warm waters in Fiji and saw thousands of shiny fish, rare colorful corals and Barracudas!  The seascape reminded us of Walt Disney's "Under the Sea" scene from "The Little Mermaid" when all the fish and sea creatures begin singing and dancing through the waters. 

In the first picture we captured one shot of hundreds of -tiny blue fish swimming and residing in hard coral.  The colors of the reef were radiant and vivid in the sunlight, and the fish were curious and friendly.  The swam together like a cloud of smoke, billowing in the oceans' currents. 

The second photo is a Picasso fish that we followed for over a half hour to take its picture, as it was escaping to deeper waters.  Its colors were bright like a painting as it was swimming through the waters. 

In our third photo, is a small black and white Angel fish that bravely ventured from its' coral refuge, located at a shallow depth of only 2 feet, living proof that the reef begins from the moment you step into Fiji's tropical ocean waters. 

Swimming back to shore from a deeper area, we came across a school of small Barracudas, as shown in my last photo.  As the sun shone off their scales, it was like a silver kaleidoscope that shifted every moment with each movement.
