Photo Of the Week - Horned Blenny, Edithburgh

This week's photo of the week, a Horned Blenny, was taken this last Saturday at my favorite shore dive, Edithburgh Jetty. The water was a chilly 11 degrees but this little fellow made it all worthwhile. After an hour and a half in a wetsuit I was looking forward to a warm shower and a good thaw but this little guy had other ideas.

Proudly perched on the steps at the exit point he strutted and posed and did everything he could to keep my shutter clicking. Horned Blennys abound around the jetty's steps and often put on a cheeky display if you have any reserves left at the end of your dive. So if they put on a show, float there, relax and stay as long as you air lasts...

From today I will continue posting one photo every week but will be looking for comments. At the end of the month I will choose one to be the photo of the month.

Until the next post, take care out there and keep diving ( if that's what you do! ) ...Robert
