Pink puff ball sponge from Andaman

[Vishal Bhave]

Tiny Pink puff ball sponge (Oceanapia sagittaria) captured my attention while snorkeling in Andaman nearby Port-Blair.

It is tiny, bright reddish-pink colored with Small delicate spiny but spongy ball followed by a stem like structure. "The pink puff is just a tiny part of the sponge. The bulk of the sponge is actually buried!" (as per Wild Singapore (http://www.wildsingapore.com/wildfacts/porifera/oceanapia.htm))

There is so much variety in the ocean world. The colours are nice. I would crop a bit from the top. What was the aperture and the EXIF details, please post so it helps in commenting better. Thanks for sharing.

I agree that cropping the dark portion from the top would be good. A bit more sharpness would have been good.

Cheers,

I like the repost. Opening up the shadows a bit more would help. You can do that in DPP. If you face any problems, then you can post your questions on the forum and members would be glad to help you out. Thanks for sharing.
