Some of the things that we see on the reef, like this Lionfish, are excellent subjects for close-ups.
He is absolutely unconcerned with me and what I am doing.
Secure in the knowledge that his defense system, will drive me off, long before I can harm him.... were I foolish enough to touch him.
In this case, that defense system is venomous spines amongst his fin array.
If I was smart like the other fish, I would also note his conspicuous coloring.... as that is also a warning to leave him alone.
