First off, I'm jazzed because I just ordered a Nikon D80. Who knows when it will get here, or even when I will be able to get a housing for it, but I'm on the edge of my seat with anticipation. It'll be my first dSLR.
Its been a couple weeks and I've been a bit slow at posting the last of my pictures. I've been wanting to go diving, too, but a week long sinus infection has ended any hope of that. I can't even get below a foot or two in my pool. Well, here we go...
Banded Coral Shrimp - I think that this is my favorite coral shrimp photo. It reminds me of some horror movie creature about to pounce on its hapless victim.
Neck Crab - these guys are so hard to get a good photo that the casual observer will actually recognize as a crab. Neck crabs are a type of decorator crab that adorn themselves with hydroids and other plant materials. This one is eating something from one claw and holding a small something in the other claw.
Another Neck Crab
And to finish off, a bit of lagniappe (a little "something extra" as the Creoles would say). Two nice looking Flamingo Tongues.
As always, thanks for the feedback.
