  1. Cool! Posted 4 years ago
    1. I had to step in the creek to get this shot. I'm still hesitant to disturb cuties (for better shots) that look so calm in the wild. Posted 4 years ago
      1. Good call. I find that aquatic crustaceans are very timid and seem to get stressed/scared super easily. I try to leave them be and get the best photos possible. Posted 4 years ago
        1. Got an ID :D I suck at crayfish IDs right now haha! Posted 4 years ago
  2. Did you use a polarising filter for this shot Lisa ? Posted 4 years ago
    1. I tinkered with the brightness/contrast in photoshop. No polarizing filter. Posted 4 years ago, modified 4 years ago
