A beautiful photograph and a glimpse into a mysterious world that most of us never see! Lovely shot…and a gorgeous shrimp.

Can you tell me what kind of camera you used for this?

This is absolutely fantastic. I will never think about shrimp in the same way again. Such beautiful purple colors. WoW!… is all I can say. Thanks for sharing, as I’d never see anything like this on my own.

The colours are wonderful. I’m used to seeing the normal cooked shrimp so this is a fantastic revelation.

Hm, you spoiled my food… I didn’t know they are that pretty! This is just a beautiful photo – I have always loved the incredible and intensive colours of sea creatures.

Hi !
Thanks everybody : )
Lynda, I used a sealife DC 500, so it’s a weak camera, but I’ll got a DSLR camera in few week, so I’ll come back with better shots !
It’s very nice to have all those comments, thanks again !
