Rolling in the Deep - Eastern Papua

Hello everyone.

Once again, I would like to share my latest episode in my 'Rolling in the Deep' series. This time exploring the muck of Eastern Papua. This is one of my favorite ones I have done. One particulary cool shots is of a Peacock Mantis shrimp aerating its eggs. Very cool behavior.

Let me know what you think!

Absolutely stunning macro work! Your stability at this magnification is amazing - please share how you manage to get your subjects to cooperate while you set up!

The mantis is terrific but I'm going to go with the skeleton shrimp as my favorite in this clip.

Thanks once again for posting such inspiration.

Awsome work! Congratulations. I liked a lot the lighting.

I supose you are using some kind of tripod, don't you?

Cheers.

As always, fantastic work. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, just beautiful Dustin.

That is a good question. Sometimes, they don't cooperate. Other times they do. Patience is key. In fact, I had 1 dive at a muck spot, that was a 2 hour dive, and everything was cooperating! And they were traditionally difficult subjects. I am going to do a film that just has footage from that dive. It was pretty cool.

Wow, just beautiful Dustin.

Thanks!

Yes, I use a tripod. A necessity for dslr macro footage.

As always, fantastic work. Thanks for sharing.
