Super macro at the Junkyard

Post by lologrande »

Went down the the Alki Junkyard on Saturday to shoot some super macro in the eel grass. There is a lot to see there right now. Skeleton shrimp out the wazoo! Sadly I didn't get any really good shots of one. If I could only get the eel grass to stand still! :angry: The diopter and moving objects just don't mix. Max depth 23'.

The owls are not what they seem.

Very cool. I have not seen an amphipod eye with that detail before. Great job!
