Description

This shot was taken underwater by me while snorkeling in Corsica . As you can see the poor crab is not entirely happy to see me that close to him - probably fears he will get eaten. How could he know I am vegetarian and don't eat seafood?! ^^;


As my zodiac sign is cancer I remembered this encounter and thought it to be the perfect entry for the contest. :-)

Lucky crab, that it was you meeting him and not me. I love seafood. ;)
But this crab is so beautiful, that I would leave it alone.
Really impressive photo!
