Marty’s photo of the day #4936: A while back, I posted a mediocre photo of a royal angelfish, explaining my failed efforts to capture a quality image of a species that seemed determined to thwart me. Then, while going one more time through the thousands of photos I took last year in the Raja Ampat, I discovered this royal angelfish, a little off to the side. Possibly not even the intended subject of my shot. I moved it into my photo program, cropped and adjusted it, and voilà! I had the quality image I thought I missed.
