I decided to come up with something a bit more unusual for the ocean photo contest today. I took this shot of my little crabby fella on an isolated beach between Playa del Carmen and Tulum on Riviera Maya, Mexico. I know its him who will get all your attention but the Caribbean Sea is still there, in the background, so hopefully it qualifies :) Photo taken a few months ago.
Crab pictures are awesome! You can't forget those goofy little crustaceans that scurry around the beaches and pinch your feet and then look at you with their beady little eyes. Here is a picture of my wife and her new friend from out trip to the beach over the summer.
Haha, what a description! Is your wife's new friend dead?
Unfortunately yes, it was a sad day at the beach. We weren't even able to find its family to notify them of its passing. The smell was horrendous but we gave the crab a proper burial at sea and had a moment of silence as he drifted off with the tide.
