Cuttlefish hunting. I was taking pictures of this guy for 10 minutes as he hunted. Camera not quick enough to get a good shot of his tentacle shooting out in focus, so with a little greyscale, came up with this interesting shot

I only got one shot of this Banded Boxer Shrimp with eggs. Original photo showed both claws (just) but i think this crop brings out the egss and the hairy arms slightly better. S-95 plus stacked 165's.

---

by Tony Cherbas
I don't know what kind of crab this is (if someone does let me know) but I think it's a new favorite. One of many "firsts" for me in Lembeh.

This small Flamboyant Cuttlefish was just the right size to fill the frame of my 60mm.

FEED ME! Bobbit worm goes after some bait that our guide prepared to entertain us with. The whole thing was a little weird, but since I've never seen a Bobbit Worm before, and was quite entertained by the baiting, I didn't protest :)
