I like this species. They are very small, sometimes with 'bumps' like this one, sometimes 'smooth' (depending on the host coral) and always hard to find and see!

This photograph has a fantastic focus on the eyes!

Do you have to be careful with the current? As in does it have a habit of knocking the subject out of focus?

Well, I always try to get focus in the eyes, if possible. This gives life to the subject.
Current is always a big problem, not only for the safety of the dive. A right focus is always difficult, with the current very critical: it's enough you or the subject moves few millimeters and you loose the focus or the focus goes to the background. Sometimes, with strong current, you can't focus at all... :(

Hopefully one day they'll invent a 'current friendly' camera ;)
