These beasts, I've also consecrated them many tickets<\/a>There are so many different species, with various colors and patterns, that sea slugs are often the favorite \"macro\" subject of underwater photographers.<\/p>\n Thanks to Anthony, I learned that these small animals are not all \"nudibranchs\" as I thought. In fact, they are divided in two groups: tectibranchs (with internal shell) and nudibranchs (with naked gills, that is this little tuft that decorates the back of the body).<\/p>\n What it doesn't teach me, however, is that \"slug hunting\" can turn into an obsession... \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n Anthony and I don't know each other \"in real life\", but we almost met this summer on the island of Perhentian Besar, in Peninsular Malaysia, where we frequented the same diving center, Watercolours. Just a few days apart, we marvelled at the same underwater world, with the same fondness for shipwrecks. Sugar Wreck and Fish Haven<\/a> (aka \"Secret Wreck\" for the latter, but not so secret anymore, it seems).<\/p>\n We talked a lot and exchanged our respective impressions, on the web, over my tickets published live from the Perhentian Islands ...<\/p>\n So when he asked me a few weeks ago if he could use one of my images to illustrate his article in Water seekers<\/em>I was only too happy to send it to her \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n I invite you to discover this issue of 23 Water seekers<\/em> (November 2009) in its PDF version also available for free download by following this link : On the web, the magazine comes in three forms, with a download site, a blog and a Facebook group: Finally, for the marine biology and underwater bubbles enthusiasts, you must visit Anthony's website and blog: \ud83d\ude44<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It's in the latest Chercheurs d'eau!
