The word nudibranch makes people laugh and snicker but its the scientific name for sea slugs. In my part of the world, slugs on land aren't pretty and are generally deemed a nuisance. My mom despised them because they ate her vegetable garden.
Underwater its completely different. Sea Slugs come in all shapes, sizes and colours. Please rave about how beautiful they are and how stunning the images they take of them.
Let me introduce you to one of those.
This stunning little creature is an Opalescent Nudibranch. This particular slug only grows to a few inches in length but its colour sure stands out on the reef. These creatures are slow moving so capturing a great images is quite easy, get close and fame your images to capture the slugs best side.
Thanks for reading.
