"When surfacing on a line from the Yongala wreck, this shoal of barracuda gently glided by like shimmering darts. Normally, the detailed markings of these fish are lost and burnt-out with strobe due to their highly reflective bodies. Here they have the look of being illustrated with chalk or pastel. A very strong image which has been published regularly is many people's favorite."
