This tricky little grunt sculpin kept swimming away right before the picture was taken. It took about 10 minutes and probably about 30 pictures to get this one. Taken with a Canon SD550 7.1 MP point-and-shoot camera using the internal flash.

Porcelain crabs are not that big. This little guy was sitting in his anemone having a great time...just fishin'. I love the look on his face. It looks like he is slurping up the plankton he is fishing for.

Hermit crab...this little guy was scooting across the bottom. When he saw me and my camera, he stopped so I could get a couple of shots off. He then took off and was headed as fast as he could to somewhere.
