17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Yellowfin

This is a yellowfin fringehead blenny. They are often found along eastern pacific intertidal zone in North America. I was diving along a wharf in central California to visit this specific fish and several others that live in the same ten foot area. Going back over months and years, its like visiting old friends.
