About Andrew Trevor-Jones

I have been participating in photography in one form or other since I was very young. It has been a passion that has not left me.

Most of my photographs are of natural subjects both above and below the water, with macro photography being my favourite.

I use Nikon gear and Ikelite housings.

    WOW Andrew, another fantastic shot, I’ve never heard of a Grubfish. Does this one look like a Blenny?

    Gabe :)

  • Thanks, Gabe. Grubfish are their own family separate from blennies and gobies. They look more like gobies than blennies to me.

    Great shot !
    I Took a shot of one of these at Pipeline, Nelson Bay.
    They always turn their back to you.

  • Thanks, Matt.
    I normally have the same problem of them turning away. This one didn’t and I must have taken 20 or so similar photos.
