EDITORS COMMENTS
Who knew bread could be so captivating? This close-up of mould on bread may not be your typical wildlife photo, but it's definitely a feast for the eyes! In this unique print, we see the fascinating world of the box crab or shame-faced crab, Calappa granulata. Known for its burrowing skills in sand at depths ranging from 13 to 400 meters, this comical crustacean is commonly found between 30 to 150 meters deep in the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean. With its black background and ample copy space, this panoramic image captures every intricate detail of this edible sea creature. Its European habitat spans from the Sahara all the way to Portugal and Israel in the Mediterranean. Don't worry though; you won't find this little guy on your dinner plate anytime soon! While most underwater photography focuses on vibrant coral reefs or majestic marine mammals, sometimes it's refreshing to appreciate nature's quirkiest creations. So next time you spot some mouldy bread, just remember that even something as seemingly ordinary can hold a world of wonder beneath its surface. This print is perfect for any wildlife enthusiast looking to add a touch of whimsy to their collection. Whether displayed in your home or office, it's sure to spark conversations about both our natural world and our unexpected encounters with everyday objects.
