Nudi in WA

[alcina]

Something a little different from the other day.

17mm - using Sigma 17-70

I'm using this as a "potential" shot - it helps remind me of things to try next time, of things to improve and of different ways of seeing a scene. It's a good example, for me, of why I rarely delete anything - there's always something to learn, even from a bad image or from an "almost" image

I realise it's got a bunch of noise/artefacts in it from the compression and changing the size, I've tried to redo it a couple of times, but have lost patience with it now! It's fine for my purposes LOL

Lovely.

I wish my local waters looked like that...

This I like, such beautiful coral.....
But i'm curious as to the title........ just can't seem to spot the nudi !!

EDIT - I see it now, wow that thing is massive.....
Nemrotha or something like that??

When you were taking this shot did you see the nudi or did you notice afterwards?

Thanks, Guys!

It's all in the angle and the settings for that blue water You can see my strobe was a bit "hot" - next time I'll know. Coz of course there will be another nudi in position some day LOL

Yes, I saw the nudi before I set up the shot. Seeing him was what prompted me to even stop and try to set something up. The stupid thing was crawling a million miles an hour of course - when I first saw it I thought "perfect, this will be great practice" But noooooo. He was crawling and moving his head around and generally not being cooperative He's just over 2" long, so a fairly big guy. Nembrotha kubaryana
