Red Sea Stonefish

I was looking at some of my slides from my Red Sea diving trip many years ago and came across one of a stonefish. They are so well camouflaged that they are very hard to spot, especially if you have never seen one before. One of the divers on our trip spotted this one right below where our boat was anchored. It was so well camouflaged that even backing off a few feet to adjust my camera and strobes made it difficult to spot again to take pictures.

Red Sea Stonefish

Can you spot its eyes and mouth?
