Congrio (Conger conger) y araña de mar. Islas Cíes, Vigo, Galicia, España, sudoeste de Europa.
Parablennius gattorugine es un pequeño pez que defiende su hogar con gran coraje. Sólo así pude aproximarme a él a tan escasa distancia que me permitió obtener esta fotografía. Parque Natural de las Islas Cíes, Vigo, Galicia, España.
Macro, but not static, because it´s moved by tide as we notice looking at the photo. It looks like a brush for dust.

Espirógrafo. Cala Fontenla, A Coruña, Spain. Olympus C5050. La dificultad de obtener esta imagen está en el incesante movimiento pendular del invertebrado.

Detalle de gusano de fuego. Tomada en El Hierro, Islas Canarias España. Tenga cuidado con rozarlo. Altamente urticante.

Cuttlefish eggs or what you want to imagine. Olympus C5050. A Moreira. A Coruña. Spain.
Labrus bimaculatus or Cuckoo wrasse.These fishes defend strongly the place where their eggs are. This is a male one. Olympus C5050. A Moreira A Coruña Spain.
Anemones. San Amaro, A Coruña, Spain. Olympus C5050. The problems to take this photo were the conditions of low visibility, and heavy stream; and for me the cold water of Atlantic ocean.
Blenny defending its home. Olympus C5050. O Grelle A Coruña Spain.
Big Southeuropean crab known as "nécora". O Grelle, A Coruña, Spain, Atlantic Ocean. Olympus C5050.
Posing behind the gorgonia. O Grelle, A Coruña, Spain, Atlantic Ocean. Olympus C5050. Low visibility. I waited for the group to pass behind the gorgonia and I shot when one stayed lookin at me.
Trumpetfish. O Grelle, A Coruña, Spain. Olympus C5050. I needed 6 photos to get one against blue sea. No visible because of mimetism.
