"Wall of Sharks"--taken at roca partida (socorro islands) Mexico.I think these were "silkies" and i have never seen such a concentration of these large animals.Taken with a 15mm lens on a nikonos 5 camera in June 2009
King crab? :-)) Graceful decorator crab, Oregonia gracilis. Decorator extraordinaire, using any material of its environment and then attach them to its body. Here with a yellow sponge and a strawberry anemone. Canon G10.
