Red Sea Napoleon fish (Egypt)

[CHAYLON]

Whilst on holiday a couple of weeks ago i cam across this Napoleon fish on the Sheraton house reef, He was a friendly fella and stayed around to play for about 15 mins. He was 4-5 foot long and very deep and broad.

Both shots look great to me. Shame there is nothing to give an idea of scale in the shot, I would have assumed he was a little fella if you had not said otherwise.
