Ink-jet Away
This octopus was photographed in Eaglehawk Neck, Tasmania, Australia. The octopus was found trapped on the beach. We were witnessing its release back into the wild. This photo shows the moment when the octopus got out of the mesh bag and decided, out its basic instinct, to cover its escape by ejecting the ink. In a split of a second, it disappeared in front of our eyes. Nikon D700 with Sea & Sea housing plus 2 INON Z-240 strobes.
