So this is a zoomed-in photo of an emperor shrimp riding on a sea slug. X-Pro Instagram filter used for the shot to highlight the intricate pattern of this particular shrimp.

That’s a Moray!
“Put your hand in a crack, and you won’t get it back, that’s a Moray!”

Tubbataha Turtle
This was taken at 20 ft depth in Tubbataha, Sulu Sea in the Philippines. I applied the Earlybird filter to give the swimming turtle that eerie but smooth effect.
Coral Pattern: Just like Mint Chocolate!
Sometimes I just want shoot underwater coral and plant life patterns. It’s relatively easy and the patterns can get really interesting especially if you get close. I shoot primarily with a 60mm macro lens (Canon).
Porcelain Crab hiding under an anemone
I just love how you can find really interesting critters underneath an anemone skirt. But I really hate how jumpy porcelain crabs can get as they try to hide themselves from the camera.
