on the puri beach i found hundreds of crabs are moving they are very camouflage with the sand for tacking snaps, there size was 1.inch to 3 inches ,they were moving on the sand and when you come very close they run in the water,they were enjoying sea waves in the morning.

Hello Manaswi,
These small crabs are difficult to photograph not only because they are camouflaged, but because they move fast and disappear into their burrows or into the water.
This is a fine capture with good sharpness that shows most of its features clearly.
Thanks and best regards,
Ivan

Pretty good capture of a Crab on Puri beach, Manaswi. These creatures are very quick on their feet. I tried to shoot them on a beach in Goa two years ago, but they would quickly disappear into their holes in the sand before I could focus on them. So I have yet to shoot my first Crab.
The sand grains and the Crab match each other in this picture.
Well done and TFS.
Ram
