May we see your photos please...

About a year and a half ago I upgraded my camera gear to a Canon 7D DSLR and a 100mm macro lens. I've shot a pretty good gallery of desktop wallpaper since then. I'll share some of my favorites on this thread.

Disclaimer - these images are tweaked in Photoshop or Lightroom, sometimes significantly. But, I strive to get them looking reasonably realistic.

First up... a couple of hermit crabs working over some algae near a chili coral
