Great shot, I am glad it’s not hanging over my head, though.

Fryktinngytende! Men flott bilde da! 🙂 Ha en god helg, Hans.

Creepy, but a great image.

Wonderful shot of this scary animal.
I wouldn’t like to catch that one.
august 9, 2013, kl. 15:46
Never saw that and hard to believe it is a fish. Would hate to catch that one. I would definitely give it my rod and reel and throw it all back in the water. Great shot though. I love your pictures…

very cool and prehistoric looking!

Scary – a great shot.
Ha en fin dag

Wonderful shot.
august 9, 2013, kl. 19:05
What a face! At least looks don’t affect flavour…
august 9, 2013, kl. 19:18
It looks like it would be equally comfortable eating you! Those are some nasty teeth!
august 9, 2013, kl. 19:23
Litt usikker på om jeg skal kommentere med Liker 🙂 Men et spesielt bilde, som var flott i sort/hvitt!
august 9, 2013, kl. 19:29
Great shot. Ferocious looking.
august 9, 2013, kl. 19:32
Wow – that is one scary-looking fish! Great shot.
august 9, 2013, kl. 19:44
Oh my…! Vilket monster 😉 Häftigt foto!
august 9, 2013, kl. 20:10
NAM. Tar to jeg.
Flott bilde.
Ha en fin kveld 🙂

Fytti! Stygg som djevelen, men utrolig god på grillen!
Go’ hælj!
august 9, 2013, kl. 20:33
WOW flott ‘portrett’.
august 9, 2013, kl. 20:51
Looks like this fish can do some of its own eating! Great image
august 9, 2013, kl. 21:34
Den har jo ikke helt utseende med seg i live, denne karen, og gjorde ikke inntrykket noe særlig bedre på veggen heller! Men smaker fortreffelig,- det skal den ha:)
Flott i svarthvitt!
Ha en flott helg, Hans:)

Looks like Alien 🙂 Great photo!
august 9, 2013, kl. 22:51
Looks scary. Sharp (!) detail.
august 9, 2013, kl. 23:16
Very nice photo, I love the tones of this scary fish! I hope I meet him!
august 9, 2013, kl. 23:43
Quite a fierce profile for a fish. Dramatic.
august 10, 2013, kl. 05:54
Creepy! Looks like you’d better eat it before it gets you.
august 10, 2013, kl. 06:53
Oh, what a creepy animal! But a absolutely great shot!
august 10, 2013, kl. 09:29
This fish is absolutely fantastic meat. The perfect meal! Before they used to throw the wolf fish / cat fish away when they caught it, but then the industry realized that this was actually a good fish and now it’s very expensive to buy.
Nydelig matfisk og et fantastisk bra bilde!
august 10, 2013, kl. 10:21
Fantastisk bilde,!
Ja, tenk det er en fisk, ser ikke slik ut!

Thank you for sharing this amazing photograph. An incredible looking fish!
august 10, 2013, kl. 12:19
This certainly caught my eye! Dramatic – almost looks like something fossilized from millions of years ago. As to «good for eating» – I imagine it’s better to eat it before is eats the rest of us.
august 10, 2013, kl. 14:26
Goodness, if the head is this big how big was the fish when it was attached to its body 🙂 scary capture Hans!
august 10, 2013, kl. 16:08
I love the detail on the skin, the pucking and ripples…. beautiful shot

Looks pre-historic! My dinosaur loving great-grandsons would adore this picture. And actually I like it too.
august 10, 2013, kl. 20:35
A creepy monster. Looks perfect in B&W. Awesome shot!
august 10, 2013, kl. 20:57
inte på min meny. 🙂 Ha en skön helg. 🙂
august 10, 2013, kl. 23:16
Pat took the words right out of my head!!! Definitely creepy…but well shot!!!
august 10, 2013, kl. 23:17
Holy smokes. Looks like an alien from a science fiction movie. Great subject in black and white
august 11, 2013, kl. 00:23
That is a dramatic photo! Scary, actually!!
august 11, 2013, kl. 07:50
that is scary 😉
august 11, 2013, kl. 10:42
That does look pretty scary. Very well captured and processed. Looks fantastic in monochrome.
august 11, 2013, kl. 17:40

Ha en strålende fin søndagskveld.

Great image of a scary image. Love the way it emerges from the darkness.
