If you are taking pixtures underwater and come across a Red Lip Blenny, you are going to have some fun.

They provide the perfect recipe for a challenging but doable shot.

On one hand.... they are very small (2-4 in), very quick, darting in their movements and generally freaked out, that something as big and noisy as a diver has invaded their space.

But on the other hand.... they are darn cute (it's those big red lips), very territorial and brave well beyond their size.

So, it is really an exercise in spending the time necessary for them to become comfortable with your presence.

If you use some of that time to watch the pattern of their movements.... you will soon see where you can get a pixture of them perched and surveying their domain.
