Hi Rich!

Thanks for the shots. Your first shot is of a Longfin Sculpin, not a Sharpnose though!

And yup, I agree on the Scalyheads. Nice to see them close up with so much detail.

And really odd coloring on the Penpoint Gunnel! That's a first!

Best Fishes,

Janna :) (two N's) :fish:

Beautiful photographs! It's amazing how much color those little guys have, if you get close to them and really light them up.
