Description

This little creature is commonly called a cuttlefish. The more scientific classification would be Cephalopoda. I myself find the pigmentation of the skin most interesting. No flash as are all my aquarium images. Taking the kids to Monterey in the morning and so a post for the day to come. Thanks to all that visit here.

Really fantastic shot of a truly underrated creature. The hint of green there just under the skin really looks fantastic!

Fantastic capture, great DoF, and a neat looking creature. Now I can put a..err... face with what Captain Jack Sparrow was refering to.

Cuttlefish? Looks more of a snob to me! Anyhow, great photograph! I could never take a picture like this at ISO 3200 with my camera! :(

This is wonderful. I've never had much luck getting any decent shots at the aquarium as I always go when it is mega busy and the whole experience is a nightmare!!!!!! PS Don't tell these guys but they remind me of their Calamari mates.....that I dined on with salt and pepper the other night!
