Marine life

On the weekend I took a trip to the aquarium to try and get some marine life macro photography:

This lobster had lovely patterns and i like the way his feeler thing is coming forwards to make it look more 3D

This jellyfish had amazing colours, i love how floaty and light it looks.

I love the detail in this jellyfish. The composition workks really well with the big one in the fore ground and the other floating around in the distance.

Here i captured him side on so you can see all his drifting tentacles

This enenimy looked cool, poofing of the side of some drift wood.

This crab has great texture, I used shallow depth of field so that the focus was on his first claw and the line of spikes above it.

The lighting on this octopus worked really well, highlighting his tentacle against the dark water

These glowing enenimies look amazing against the black background. and they have so much detail :o
