kja Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) Sir & Prada - thank you so much! woof - aww, that's sweet, I appreciate it! Underwater the goal is to get as close as possible to your subject - and yesterday's huge turtle was helping me :) I did manage to get a frame or two of more of him, but it was tough as he wanted to be right up on my lens the whole time - it was awesome! And a namesake shot - the site is called Love Shack because there's a section that is totally covered in these moray eels who have three kinds of cleaner shrimps living in their holes with them Edited May 21, 2012 by kja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kja Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 (edited) Piper & ari - thanks!! ari - sigh, I never get around to printing anything. Maybe one day. I am simply incapable of swimming past an octopus without taking a photo of it. On the upside, it means I have a nice range for playing with editing :D Edited May 22, 2012 by kja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kja Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 ok, no one likes octopus, how about some shrimp? All three of these guys were living with the eels, though we see two of them without eels, too. Scarlet cleaner Humpback cleaner Hingeback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyCresties Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 ok, no one likes octopus I love octopus :D I will always be haunted by the time I saw my first one when snorkelling in Crete, I gave an excited squeal to my partner back on the beach which unfortunately alerted a local on the beach too. He swam in, grabbed the octopus, took it back to the beach and proceeded to disembowel it in front of my horrified partner I kept my finds to myself after that :laugh: I also had an octopus 'steal' my snorkel once - that'll teach me to leave them in peace :laugh: Stunning shrimp too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelsie the Kelpie Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Your photos are simply gorgeous!!! I miss the reefs!! I wish I were half as good at capturing a subject as you are :] May favorite I do believe is the coal shrimp though, I love the tiny bit of colour in his body Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
