Nice pic. Works well B/W. And what a strange looking critter.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

It's a wolf eel (aka Atlantic wolffish, Seawolf, Atlantic catfish, ocean catfish).
Has a bite so powerfull that it can snap a broomstick in half, hence it's Scandinavian name: Stone biter.

Nice image btw :-)
