Michael Patrick O’Neill took this fantastic photo of a photographer/diver and a Goliath grouper (Epinephelus itajara) – it won the People in Nature Award at the Nature’s Best 2007 Photography Competition.

Suddenly I am hungry. Grouper is the best fish i have ever tasted!

Mmm, grouper.
That said, I never want to encounter one in a non-cooked or non-filet form.

Check out the other pictures–they’re all really good. And if you look closely at the iguana picture, you’ll see Jesus between its eyes.

I am imagining the fight this fish would give if he were hooked by a fisherman.

That honestly looks like a scene out of a sci-fi/horror/fantasy movie.
A swarm of small fish gathers, and a huge, monstrous fish emerges from it to consume all.

i think i would need a change of wet suite after seing that huge fish…

I was on that dive with him. That’s exactly what it looked like. The photo has NOT been manipulated.

I hate to see something so beautiful on the end of a hook. This is a gentle giant and if I were a little fellow I too would hang around him.
