  • Yesterday I had a lot of fun doing macro and supermacro on a local shore dive. This little Blenny measured about 5mm across and was an absolute supermodel peeking out of his coral home.

  • This is the same blenny as in my previous post, only this time I used a strong wet lens to achieve a greater magnification. If you've never tried supermacro it's hard to appreciate just how difficult it is to work with a depth of field this shallow. This little guy measures about 5mm accross, yet only a tiny portion of his face is in focus. This can be very frustrating but I loved the challenge and will return for more in the next few days!

  • Sea urchins come in all colours and variations. This particular one truly amazed me with its pitch black exoskeleton and orange/white spines. Along with the white tips of its tube feet this to me resembles a city at night as viewed from above.

  • I have only recently discovered my appreciation for blennies, but aren't they just super cute?!

  • This super cute blenny posed for me in only about 4m of water in the Sea of Cortez. It's not easy to steady yourself in even the slightest swell at that depth, while being super close to the subject and while avoiding damage to the reef and the camera. If anybody knows what species this little fella is, please do let me know. I still have a lot to learn about the tiny inhabitants of the sea!
