I can assure it is real, Ed. Its is a type of parrotfish, very common in Canary Islands, where it is called 'vieja'.

Ed Rooney Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 (edited) Oh, fascinating, Jaime. I don't get under water much, except in the shower. I meant that the smile was Photoshopped. No? Edited September 11, 2020 by Ed Rooney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shearwater Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Nope, all you can see is real. They use their teeth to feed in hard coralline algae. Their tropical parrotfish cousins, who eat hard corals, are know for 'creating' the white sand of the beaches with their depositions. This is one of mine images of a vieja: Not so funny, but you can see her smile (she is female). In fact, this image was sold a couple of months ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Mitchell Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 (edited) Very enjoyable. That smiling fish could/should run for president. 😁 Edited September 11, 2020 by John Mitchell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geogphotos Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 (edited) This one gives me a smile. Why didn't I think of taking a picture like that - with my cooking it would have been a cinch... Edited September 11, 2020 by geogphotos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
