•  Info Spotted trunkfish (Lactophrys bicaudalis) - macro head shot underwater captured at 40 ft. depth, Bari Reef, Bonaire (BES Islands) - created, uploaded, nominated by Atsme -- Atsme 📞 15:13, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

 Neutral I like the fish, but there's the focus issue, and the color is a bit iffy (some pink/magenta reflecting off the surroundings). INeverCry 00:35, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

• I clarified that it's a macro shot (100mm Macro lens) underwater - no way to get depth of field and that much detail when you're so close you can see particles inside the fish's mouth. Atsme 📞 02:07, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

• For me the main issue is how much the fish blends in with the surroundings (color-wise), and that the color looks a bit flat overall. Its chin is pink for example, and its body has no vibrancy; it doesn't seem to stand out as much as I'd expect. Perhaps I'm looking for too much though. INeverCry 17:56, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

• INeverCry, if I may make a suggestion for you to please review some of the online underwater photographs of spotted trunkfish, or better yet, just look at some of the fish pictures that have been promoted here at Commons: Commons:Featured pictures/Animals/Fish.
