While sifting for shark’s teeth we came upon several small crabs. I thought this one was pretty tiny, until I saw. . .
Now he’s tiny! These were taken with my little waterproof point and shoot.
Can you tell he’s no bigger than a penny? It’s so funny to see something that small get all defensive, lol.
Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign Mr Linky. MM started on Sept 29, 2008 – Thanx to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

What a wonderful little creature! And yes, it is funny to see him adopting his fighting stance to someone so very much bigger than he is! Bless!
Blessing Reflections said,
For a little point and shoot camera, your pictures are fantastic!
Margaret Gosden said,
Yes, what is this point and shoot camera called, I wonder, and waterproof, too!
To have captured so tiny a creature, with such a expressive reaction, is a miracle!
teresa said,
Very cute little guy. It’s kind of like a tiny dog that thinks it’s as big as a mastiff. Posturing and confidence are everything. Nice photos, especially with a point and shoot

naquillity said,
it’s amazing how small some creatures can be and survive for as long as they do in the wild. i guess they’re equipped with what they need to stay alive. great captures.

What a great little tough guy! He may only be the size of a penny, but you can tell he’s a fighter! Nice that you had the waterproof camera with you!
Angie Hurst said,
So cool! The lines in your (or whoever is holding it) hands look so neat too. They came out so clear. Amazing what P&S’s can do!
