Jesus In The Bay, Close-up

It has taken me more than a year but I finally accomplished the close-up better quality photo of our very own Cristo. I tried a couple days ago without a mask, but the photos I took were little better than those I shot last April. I was determined to capture better images and so returned this morning with a pair of goggles. They made all the difference as I dove down about three meters from the surface to get a straight on view of the statue. Lucky for me, the fish which always seem to be around the statue were not too worried by my presence and I managed to capture a couple in the frame.
