Honorable Mention Nudibranchs

"Sheep Nudibranch with Eggs"

The Story:

On one of our photo dives, my sharp-eyed guide Jason, spotted this beautiful nudibranch. It was a sheep nudibranch with amazing colors, and as a bonus, it had eggs! We patiently stayed with it until I got the shot that I wanted. I exposed to the left to make sure that the white eggs and bright cerata would not get blown out.
