Here is a scanned c/n film picture of Barry, a big fish and the resident Barracuda out at Fantasea's large Reefworld pontoons, situated at Hook reef about 35 Km east of the Whitsunday islands ( I used to work as a skipper/yachtie/diver/deckie/underwater photographer in Oz and abroad).
To put the resplendant Barry's size into perspective, the box alloy down strut behind him is 4 inches wide, this strut went to a submerged divers platform 1 metre below the pontoon.
I couldnt get him in the whole shot, he had a habit of cruising up to divers he recognised and getting WAY to close. He was a nice fish to people though.
Date- December 1999
Camera - Niconos with external lighting, Kodak 400 ASA film, auto exposure metering.
This picture is getting a little old just now so i apologise for quality degradation, and water sediment.
