Taken in Krabi last May, the untouched sand was scattered about with these holes and little balls of sand that the crabs roll up. I was taking a photo of the the pattern made by the balls of sand and didn't realise until after I took it that the crab was in the shot.

Here it is close up. I used my macro lens for this.

Which is why I didn't spot it when I took the photo!

I suppose he's the one who's making all those small balls of sand ?

Algiers, etc (4.00 / 6)

Sorry, we have been babysitting from dawn past dusk all week, so missed the posting deadline for Europe. These are for the good.

My bedroom window on the Harbor and Bay of Algiers

Bedroom - It was huge!

The sitting area. I think I used flash and a 28mm lens.

The window depicted in the first shot is actually the one just to the right of the fireplace in the sitting area.
