The Survivor!

The Survivor!

This solitary cuttlefish was in a sorry state. It was obvious from the lack of tentacles and scarring on its head, back and sides, that it had escaped the clutches of a predator. Despite this, it was not threatened being photographed and allowed my buddy and me to spend quite some time with it. This image was captured with an Olympus C-750UZ with inbuilt flash. Depth, 15.5 metres on Blue Devil Reef close to Mindarie, WA. Photocomp January '05 - Open
