Flatworms aren't nudibranchs but it's a great image. We are seeing lots of candy-stripe flatworms here on the west coast of Sweden just now, as well as lots of nudibranchs. See my post in the St Ives thread on the photography board.

I saw a couple of these at Flamborough on Monday night and also some other Nudi's. There where two other types I saw, one was an opaque with yellow tipped frongd and the other was vivid purple with yellow tipped frongs. Very pretty. They all seemed to be attracted to a type of weed I haven't noticed before, it kind off looked a bit like cabbage but with redish veins in the leaves.

Thank you all for the positive comments.

I think the picture is clear because I was right on top of the thing with a wide angle lens. Not much murky water in the way at all.
Plus I took about ten shots and usually one of them is half way decent ;-)

The one or two decent shots that I bring back from each trip make the incovenience and expense worthwhile.

Nice pic!

I have seen quite a few... including a couple on the Countess a couple of weeks ago. Never managed to get a decent shot of one though. If I get close enough to get the water out the way, the camera won't focus properly. I can get some good ones, though, if I have the macro lens on.
