Underwater photography – the sea’s slugs
We are introducing you with natural most exotic animals – the sea slugs. With over 3000 known species, it is a wonder more people have not heard of them. Nudibranchs as all other gastropods, they are slow moving bottom dwellers. They have soft bodies and most of them lack an external protective shell. With fantastic coloration, they deserve to be called gems of the sea and should inspire jewelry designers.
