2006.12.08 Porcelain crab

Sinan Digan, Puerto Galera, Oriental Mindoro, Philippines

I love these little guys, but they're generally not keen on getting their pictures taken. Good opportunities mostly arise when an unexpected current lifts an edge of the anemone and exposes the crab.

Obviously I'm still playing with diving shots. This one will also go into the PG favourites gallery as soon as I have figured out how to automate one aspect of preparation for the web ...

Nice shot, David. Very nice lighting, and great background. I haven' been to Puerto Galera in a very long time....used to be a hang-out for me. Cheers, Scotty

What a fantastic capture underwater, I love the details and the green glow is amazing. Voted

Ooooo... It's so delicate and it certainly looked camera shy :-) Beautifully composed too. Love the texture and the colors, especially the vivd green glow. Really nice. Voted.

Very Nice shot. I wish I can get underwater shots a 10th as good.
