Anemone Shrimp

Taken in Bonaire on our way back from the Galapagos.
They are very hard to shoot as they never stop moving.
The black dots are sensor dust :o

I like the composition Ken,
This is a different angle of capture from the top down...the color rendition is very good and the details are razor sharp, did you use any type of filter?...congrats...:cool:

If it were mine, I'd clone those black dots out but then I'm ultra picky that way. I also think a bit more frame on both ends where he's slightly cut off wouldn't have hurt but this is a really good capture. The details and the colors are wonderful. I've never tried underwater photography but this makes me want to give it a whirl!

[Ken Hawk]

No I didn't use any type of filter Gus, there is no room for one behind the port.

Thanks for the comments Ken

Interesting angle. I like the diagonal pose. As an underwater photographer I know how skiddish these critters are. Where did you dive in Bonaire. I will be going next month.

I will have to have a look at a log book, well the wifes :D

Is it your first trip to Bonaire Anita, and were are you staying?

[anita ray]

Was there last year. Best results on the town pier late at nite. Have to start posting some images myself.
Did you dive in Galapagos?
