UPY British Waters Macro - Commended
'Leopard'
Cathy Lewis
Leopard-spotted gobies (Thorogobius ephippiatus) generally hide themselves away in holes and crevices. I came across this one on the wreck of the Cita in the Isles of Scilly. He was either curious or territorial, standing his ground just long enough for me to get this head-on shot.
Judge's comment: The two eyes make this image, in fact it is all about the eyes. They are perfectly symmetrical and they need to be. I like the tight composition and the balance of the image around the frame is perfect.
