My strobes illuminated this Flabellina well, perhaps too much .. but I like the same for the luminescence effect that makes the colors brighter ! Taken in Goa_2023

There is a diving place here in Goa called "the wreck", an iron barge sunk here in the 50s. Here there are many nudibranchs of this type named "Flabellina rubrolineata" ..very small, about a centimeter or so, but beautiful for their bright colors.

This was on the last night on the liveaboard we were staying on. There were only a handful of divers around. I was lucky to get this shot of one of the photographers getting some closeup shot of the whale shark. Shot on canon r5 in a nauticam housing
