Porque hoje era isto que me apetecia… publico umas quantas fotos subaquáticas.
The camouflage that weedy sea dragons use to hide in the temperate marine vegetation they derive their name from is so successful that once they reach adulthood they have no natural predators. Unfortunately they are still at risk due to habitat destruction. The males of the species carry the bright pink, fertilized eggs underneath their tails for about two months before the fully formed young hatch and are left to fend for themselves.

Softly aglow in sea-washed sunlight, Christ of the Abyss stands 30 feet (9 meters) down in the Atlantic in Florida’s John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park. Visitors to the sanctuary don masks and fins or view the sea life through the glass bottoms of tour boats. (Photo shot on assignment for “The Lower Keys, Florida’s ‘Out Islands,'” January 1971, National Geographic magazine).

A saltwater crocodile lunges for the camera. This photo was taken just before its jaws closed on the lens shade; the blurred outline of the jaws demonstrates the lightning-fast nature of its lunge. This photo and caption were submitted to the 2008 International Photo Contest. Solve jigsaw puzzles and download wallpaper.
