While running on the beach with Barry, I noticed some channels which formed at low tide and as they prevented the ghost crabs from disappearing into the surf, I decided to try and get some shots of them underwater.

At first I simply tried to hold the housing underwater and shoot blind, but it just didn’t work - the crabs moved too quickly and I would loose them in the churn and the sand clouds. So I put on my goggles and simply floated after them, using my feet to power me. Strange to be shooting in 50cm of water, but a jorl, and thanks to the legendary Nikkor 10.5mm lens, the images came out way better than I had expected.
