Nope, It's not fake, it's not a statue...

This is the Australian 'Lionfish'. I perhaps shouldn't have made this photograph black and white, because the lion fish truly do have vibrant oranges throughout their body.
But don't let their calm appearance and pretty fins fool you....some of these fins contain spines that can inject venom into you.

Yep. Welcome to Australia!

Just to complement your beautifully lit image here is my take on this fish which is both statue and in color ;-)
