I took this picture last night and its got me puzzled. I was trying to get a shot of the mandarin. When i uploaded the photos i noticed that the zebra goby was in the shot also. Heres the strange part. I can see the mandarin and its reflection on the right. So why is there only a reflection of the zebra goby?

Wow I like that.. Unless you have two gobies..

 

[Mr. Softy]

One Mandarin and four Zebra Gobys.

Looks like u have two gobies to me....

 

[Mr. Softy]

Who's seeing things now lol. Seriously though, there is only one mandarin and one zebra gobie in that photo.

 

[rookie07]

could the gobie be far away? ie behind the rock? and you can only see its reflection? Perhaps the angle of the photo makes the mandarin and goby appear to be next to each other despite being far apart.

 

[Mr. Softy]

I thought about that also, but i wasn't sure if the reflection would carry that clearly at that distance. I guess it does. Thanks for confirming that Rook.

 

[KathyC]

If that is true - why does the goby seem to have a shadow?

 

[greggnyce]

Maybe one is breifly crossing over from the 4th dimension.

+1 with Rook, I say your looking at the reflection and depending on the angle of the the distant light source you will get its shadow also. The mandarin is casting a shadow as well. Plus Softy looks like he cleaned the surrounding area glass, both sides, making light reflection greater.

It's EVIL!!! KILL IT!!!

Pour bleach and run.

It could be an evil twin, get it before it gets you.

Simply the goby is out of the frame to the left and you only can see the reflection
