Awesome shot mate.. Where did you take this one? The last time I tried to get close to a horde of these li'l fellas was on Straddie.. They're pretty quick to get under the sand when you get too close..!!

Thanks heaps!
This was taken at Brunswick heads.
I can't remember how many photos it took to get a few reasonable ones.
That's the challenge though.
Cheers!

aww that's awesome!! i love soldier crabs (i think that's what they are called...) we used to see them all the time when we went down to fraser island often, but we don't do that anymore because of all the tourists...

The tourists tend to try and stomp on them here.
It makes my blood boil.

Oh how odd! I live on the coast too, but its Vancouver Canada. I've never seen little BLUE crabs before. Very interesting!
Awesome shot, btw. I love the angle you got it at.

They are fairly common here in Australia, they live in river estuaries.

Cheers Nony!
They are cute !
I got "Heavy" with some folks that where stomping on them the other day!
Why do people think they can walk down to the river and stomp on the poor little crabs?
What pleasure do they get from doing that?
It bugs me when folks kill my friends!

Great capture, thought out well, the macro mode gives a great DOF, really looks like they are heading for the dog.

Thanks Cy!
The crabs where the hardest ones to get the choreography right with!
They just don't listen!!!!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Know what you mean about the choreography, i have had a few people make suggestion on how i could have better composed Bird shots
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
I know what you mean on that point Cy!
It's as if your sposed to have a magic wand or something?
And you have .oo5 of a second to make all the adjustments and take the picture!
I totally understand.
That's why I appreciate your wonderful split second images so much!
Cause I understand how hard it is to get those images.
Thousands of images later!
Cool on you bro!
