Very nice Carl.

I really like the Emperor on the Nudi composition.

Thanks. It was not a placement either, it was there riding along on the 2 nudi's. The 2nd shot I gave him a little encouragement to go to the front of "the ship". It wasa dream shot........... my next dream is to find some on some Fire Urchins. I just love them shots...... so full of colour.

Hi Carl,

Great shot and the color is so nice too.

What is in the last (red) picture??? Another animal or does it just look so tricky?

Greetings

Was an Emperator Shrimp on a Spanish Dancer. He was hiding in the gills, a little 2 deep for a nice shot

Beautiful shots, Carl.

I especially like the second one, well done!

The emperor shrimp on the nudi is an excellent and beautiful shot!

the second photo is phenomenal !!!

Thanks..... i like it too. I was really looking forward to the Spanish dancer with the emperator, but it did not come out that good. It actually had the potential to be better than the nudi one, but did not turn out as expected. The Nudi is nice, looks like its glowing. ( the picture is fresh from the press, no edits, crops or adjustments )..... Only sad thing is the sand background cause of the muck diving ....but s'pose i should be very thankful already.........

Quite funny to see them hitch a ride.. lazy sods........
