Nudibranch

Photographed by Lars Witberg

I found this beautiful nudibranch on a cold winter dive south coast of Norway. I moved the bench it was sitting on gently and it let go and started sinking in mid water. It stretched out like a parachuter and steered the direction. I sank with it and shot with flashes from the under side. The light passing into open water turned black and the nucibrach reflected and made this image
