Took this while visiting a new dive site! The site is known for its unique wall structure, my buddy spotted this one for me as it was on the ledge of the wall that I can easily get a head shot while removing background to really pop the subject!

Dirona albolineata - I shot this very carefully by waiting for the moment and positioning myself in order to capture the beauty of their cerata! Using sea weed as background also helped to pop the subject

Blue Jeans. I’m always reminded of a faded blue jeans when I see this kind of nudibranch. Shot was taken from Anilao.

This shot was taken using big aperture for nice bokeh effect. This sea lemon was crawling on bunch of barnacles, it was relatively shallow compare to the rest of the dive, so there was good amount of natural light for the background color!

Taken with an Olympus TG4. I saw this nudibranch as it was finishing to lay eggs while we were on a dive in Anilao.

Halgerda Batangas. I love how it has a very pretty color. The shot was taken at Southern Leyte, Philippines.

This is a photo of a common nudibranch, Chromodoris Willani. Taken using TG6 borrowed from a friend since my Sony A7 housing is leaking. Shot using snoot, taken at Anilao, Batangas, Philippines.

This is a photo of a nudibranchia, joruna funebris. The black and white contrast of this nudi makes it very attractive even just to observe underwater. Taken in Dauin, Negros Oriental, Philippines.
