Species in Decline (C)
White Clawed Crayfish
These are getting harder to find due to the plague spread by introduced Signal Crayfish. Its the old old story with introductions.
Photographed slide. Originally taken with one flash and a reflector above the tank.

yes, these are really struggling. Still a few in a local spot near me I believe. It's another nice shot John and the lighting worked very well.

Cracking shot John - there is so much detail here - and the eye is just brilliant.
It's good to get something different too. :wavey:

Really nicely constructed setting John, like the darkness of the rocks in contrast to the pale cray :smile:
