An absolutely incredible capture! The detail is extraordinary along with beautiful color! Because most people don't have the opportunity (nor would be brave enough to take it! :) to check out these guys up close, you find yourself just staring endlessly at the surprising beauty and intricate detail of this fellow. I may never eat crab again! :) Warmest congrats, Anita - excellent work!

WOW Ok so how did you get that close? These rascals are fast as lightning as I have them in my back yard and have never been able to get an image until they are dead in the dogs mouth. ha ha
Super shot Anita and a well deserved award with or without a camera if they only knew how fast they are.
Have a blessed day.
