This profile shot of a Glossodoris atromarginata was taken at Bare Island, Sydney, Australia. The location of the nudibranch made it easy to get a front on shot, rather than the usual top down angle. By adjusting the image to be in black and white the detail is brought out in the subject. Shot was taken with a Panasonic Lumix DMC FT1 camera with housing.

Seaslugs - Part II. Sidegill slugs and Sap-sucking slugs: by Ákos Lumnitzer; In this article I will introduce you to the next two in hierarchical sequence. Seaslugs are indeed fascinating creatures and are a favorite for many photographers. They do not move about very quickly at all, which is a characteristic that makes them easy subjects to shoot. Often it is not the case of 'the one that got away', but the case of 'Oh no! I have run out of film again!'.

Time to chill at Bondi Beach: by Richard; Diving in Sydney is like drinking beer, it can take a while to get used to but once you get the taste for it, you're hooked for life.

Seaslugs - Part III. Nudibranchs: by Ákos Lumnitzer; I wish I had a pound for every time I heard a diver say: 'Did you see the beautiful nudibranch down there?' - not knowing, that the creature was only another opistobranch and not a true nudie?
