## Photos

[96 - 2022-11-27 - Middle Garden - Sharm Al Sheikh - Egypt](96%20-%202022-11-27%20-%20Middle%20Garden%20-%20Sharm%20Al%20Sheikh%20-%20Egypt.md) - I really like the mood of this one, with the beautiful light of shallow water. This one is a male.
## Notes
The male is blue, as the one took on photo, and the female have a gray body (sexual dimorphism). Fast swimmer.
