  • Towards the end of the dive, I found a group of seals all busy playing in the standing waves produced by the ebbing tide. They took pity on my obviously inept swimming skills and tried to demonstrate to me how to do barrel rolls and other antics (whilst grabbing my fins and investigating my camera and strobes).<br />
Any time a marine creature chooses to interact with me is a very special thing. To have a group of them literally playing with me, as an (albeit inept) part of their group was amazing!

  • The Bahamas still has large numbers of sharks. As used to be the case in many diving areas, you can see them on most dives. Sharks, or the lack of them, is a strong indicator of a marine ecosystem's health. Taken on assignment during the Bahamas Underwater Photo week 2014.

  • Far from the idyllic "Nemo" life in a host anemon, within a group of clownfish, there is a strict hierarchy of dominance. The largest and most aggressive female is found at the top. Only two clownfish, a male and a female, in a group reproduce through external fertilization. The clownfish are hermaphrodites, meaning that they develop into males first, and when they mature, they become females. If the female clownfish is removed from the group, such as by death, one of the largest and most dominant males would become a female. The rest of the remaining males will move up a rank on the hierarchy.

  • A Goniobranchus aureopurpurea nudibranch lifts its "skirts" or mantle as it moves across the bottom. The animal's rhinophores are able to sense chemicals and currents within the water around it.
    140213-ahanlon-86249.jpg
  • 150109_ahanlon_9355.jpg
  • This nudibranch has evolved to be able to generate its own food by having photosynthetic zooxanthellae algae within it. The solar-powered phyllodesmium (Phyllodesmium longicirrum) ingest green algae without completely digesting it and stores the algae's chloroplasts in the obvious spots on its body.
    140209-ahanlon-84367.jpg
  • Two Phyllidia marindica nudibranchs prepare to mate. These animals are widespread throughout the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
    161005-ahanlon-508442.jpg
  • A bus stop nudibranch (Goniobranchus hintuanensis) lifts its mantle or skirt as it negotiates the sea floor. These species were re classified with the help of DNA analyisis in 2012. Nudibrachs move with the help of a muscular foot, that has rythmic contractions along its length.

  • Nudibranchs lay chacteristic patterns of eggs on rocks or the sea bed. This many lobed ceratosoma (Ceratosoma tenue) is layinga spiral of red eggs on a small rock
    131022-ahanlon-82070.jpg
  • Geometric Chromodoris (Chromodoris geometries) moving across its substrate of a piece of fallen timber. In common with many nudibranchs, this Chromodoris feeds on hydroids, coral, sponges and anemones. As it moves, its mantle "waves" up and down.
    131022-ahanlon-82115.jpg
  • Super macro study of the head of a crested nembrotha (Nembrotha cristata) nudibranch. These sea slugs come in an amazing variety of shapes, sizes and colors.
    140211-ahanlon-85444.jpg
  • This nudibranch has evolved to be able to generate its own food by having photosynthetic zooxanthellae algae within it. The solar-powered phyllodesmium (Phyllodesmium longicirrum) ingest green algae without completely digesting it and stores the algae's chloroplasts in the obvious spots on its body.
    140209-ahanlon-84370.jpg
  • Close up stady of the rhinophores of a Marie's Mexichromis nudibranch. (Mexichromis mariei). These sensory organs provide a great deal of information about chemical and scents in the water as well as currents and water movements. Taken in the Lembeh Straits, Sulawesi, Indonesia.
    160927-ahanlon-504981.jpg
  • The red on this Nembrotha kubaryana signal danger to any passing animla that thinks that it might be a good meal!
    160928-ahanlon-505298.jpg
  • Risbecia tryoni nudibranchs apparently nuzzle priot to mating. It is likely that they are actually using the chemical receptors on their rhinophores to sense the readiness of the other.
    160930-ahanlon-24432.jpg
  • This Marie's Mexichromis (Mexichromis mariei) is laying a trail or ribbon of eggs. Each species of nudibranch has a distinct pattern when it lays eggs and this allows biologists to identify which eggs belong to which animal.
    161003-ahanlon-507104.jpg
  • The colors of this Flabellina rubrolineata warn other animals that it may give them a anasty surpise if they try to eat it. It can store the poison from the stinging cells of the animals it eats, and use it as aweapon in its defence.
    161005-ahanlon-508817.jpg
  • A Coryphella lineata nudibranch on a hydroid in the cold green waters of Norway. Nudibranchs exist in just about evrry climatic region, from tropical reefs to polar oceans.
    170303-ahanlon-505678.jpg
  • There are still many species of nudibranch that are as yet undescribed by science. This animla rejoices in the name Nembrotha species 2 and is not yet properly taxonomically classified. The use of genetic sequencing has also created many new controversies, with many existing families and species being reclassified. This partcular specimen has tangled with something that has removed one rhinophore.
