Sitting in a rock pool in Devon, a European Spider Crab. This one was about 30 cm/1 foot wide, apparently its Japanese cousin grows up to 4m and lives for 100 years. It really was this pink.

aaa now you reminded me of these crazy giant Japanese crabs, I had the chance to see them in Osaka aquarium, I will definitely make a post, they were like aliens or something :)
Thank you very much for telling me about the zoom technique, I will definitely give it a try :)
Cool! what a neat photo! Watch your fingers!
Neat! Love seeing different stuff.
Wow, when the crabs around here are that color it usually means it's time to eat!
Thanks for the info on the zoom techique. I have something new to try out.
I wouldn't like to be bitten by this guy - let alone his cousin! great shot with really nice colour ;)
