The January 2015 issue of Tauchen has just hit the newsstands, featuring my image of a fire clown fish from the Philippines on the cover.

For the second time this year, German dive magazine Tauchen chose one of my images for their cover - this time a fire clownfish (Amphiprion melanopus) which I shot just off Alona Beach in the Philippines back in 2008.

The included booklet about the Azores Islands covers some of the text, giving the cover a quite catchy "EH?" which actually goes quite well with the expression of the clownfish.

Maybe this is part of the reason they chose this image? Anyway, Tauchen has released this promotion video for magazine:

According to Wikipedia, the fire clownfish is also known as cinnamon clownfish, and it is chiefly found in the western and southern parts of the Pacific Ocean.

This widely distributed species can also be found in more central parts of the Pacific Ocean.
