'Cardinalfish and Bubbles'
Enrico Somogyi

For this Cardinal fish i was using an Inon Z240 with an optical Snoot (make by Fabio iardino) to get a dark background. The Bubble Effect I created by a low F-Number with something glittering in front of the Lens. This glittering material I light up with a DIY purple colored fiberoptic Snoot on a Retra Flash.
The challenge was to get close enough to the cardinal fish with the optical Snoot to light them up.
For this pic I needed the whole dive.

Judge's comment: A quality portrait elevated with the double exposure. Kudos to Enrico for sharing all the details of how it was done. - Alex Mustard
