"This picture was a matter of being at the right place at the right time. The jewelfish and cathedral lighting lent this scene a "heavenly" effect. I remember we found this spot at the end of the dive, at a remote dive location we would never return to. Worse yet, I had only one picture left on the film. So I framed the shot very carefully...and prayed when I thought I had it just right."
