Orang Utan Crab On A Soft Coral - © Bernard Loke

This little crab is about 3cm in size and very active. It kept jumping around and often fell off the soft coral making is a quite hard to photograph. With every 2-3 shots, I need to pick it up from the sand and place it back onto the coral again.

Nevertheless, it was really good photographing this little crab as it’s really unique; because it looks like a orangutan!

I saw it during my first dive in Manado  but I did not manage to have a good photograph of it because there were too many divers with the camera. Luckily enough, it appeared again on my last dive of the trip. Otherwise, it’ll need to wait until my next trip.
