Alright - just stopping by to share another shot of a Caribbean Reef Octopus - this time showing off a bit of how they are able to change their skin texture to mimic their environment - in this case some sargassum

Technical Data: Canon EOS 7D, Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM, 1/120th sec at f/16. Image Stabilization on. ISO 100. Ikelite Housing and Port with Ikelite 161 Strobe in TTL Mode. Raw conversion in Photoshop CS5.

Don't worry - there are plenty more good octopus shots to share, so this won't be the last...
