Location
in a puddle on the side of the R72, Port Alfred, Eastern Cape, South Africa.Time
must have been about 11amLighting
yes, the puddle was still in the shade at this stage with the sun behind the embankment.Equipment
Pentax K-30 camera with a 18-135mm zoom lensInspiration
As i was passing i noticed some movement in the murky puddle water. and this crab appeared, as if to investigate the intruder. i had my camera at the ready so shot away (photos , of course), and got really close up (on my knees almost). it was an awesome experience with nature, and applying my photographic skills.Editing
Framing and cropping is all i didIn my camera bag

Have you camera ready, be alert for new and unusual subjects. They disappear fast...
