This impressive collection of pictures taken by
Joshua Lambus, in Hawaii reveals the colourful creatures that are just a
few centimetres in size. They are found in water more than 7,000ft
deep, off the coast of Kailua-Kona. Among the 'colour x-ray' style
images are pictures of rare squids, jellyfish and shrimp. Joshua Lambus
said: "The colours they produce are the naturally reflected colours of
their pigmentation." Joshua became a minor celebrity after he
photographed a tiny octopus, called a tremoctopus - only the second time
the animal had been captured on camera. Joshua Lambus has now been on
more than 400 'blackwater' dives. He adds that:
"The lack of light and
reference is the closest thing I could imagine to being in space."
