18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Hermit Crab

A common crustacean found on most dives in the Puget Sound, the hermit crab is typically looked over in pursuit of more unique species. Yet, a macro lens with a +10 diopter really allows you to get an up close view of this beautiful animal. From their ornate shells to their colorful bodies. I think they make a great underwater macro subject.
