Denise’s pygmy seahorse (Hippocampus denise).

Pygmy seahorses are among the most well camouflaged species in the oceans, being very difficult to spot amongst the gorgonian coral they live in. Hippocampus denise is tiny, growing only to a total length of 1.5 cm (5/8 inch). It is orange and resembles the pygmy seahorse, Hippocampus bargibanti, though its tubercles are less distinct (From Widipedia).

Shot with a Canon 5D Mark III, 100mm lens in Nauticam housing. Lembeh strait, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Feb/2013.

1cm도 되지 않는 이 작은 squat lobster (galathea sp.)는 보통 그다지 사진 촬영에 어울리는 화려한 포토제닉은 아닌듯 합니다. 하지만 접사 비디오로 촬영 해 보니 먹이 활동을 하는 모습이 정말 재미있습니다. 인도네시아, 렘베에서 캐논 7D, 100mm 렌즈로 촬영하였습니다.
