The barbaric King

[Prajwal J Ullal]

ID: Clapping crab

Stumbled upon this beautiful and vibrant specimen while returning from the Shorewalk and as a typical behavior, the agitated crabby kept on striking this pose, with its claws wide apart and as high as it could raise, while almost showing off its belly. The majestic crawler's posture almost resembled to that of an aggressive warrior or Emperor of Sparta showing off his Prowess over the whole kingdom.

The low angle makes it appear more majestic in the frame. Wish the two people on the right side of the frame were not present. As you have mentioned its abdomen does give a slight resemblance to the Sparta warriors :). Thanks for sharing.

I agree with Mrudul's comments. Slightly more space at the left would have been nice. Thanks for sharing.
