I think this shot gives an interesting perspective of the salmon world. Rainforest, rushing water and fish are all here in a single image.

My presence momentarily interrupts the courtship between a male and female Chum salmon. Note the silver little fish near the bottom. Those are Dolly Varden, waiting for a possibility of having some Chum Salmon eggs in the near future.

Doing underwater telephoto macro photography in a stream is not easy. Add current and standing waves, and gets real tricky. But I got the shot, after trying for days and days....
