This print showcases the vibrant beauty of a Mantis shrimp, a hole dwelling crustacean found in Queensland, Australia. The image captures the essence of this unique creature as it hides within its sheltered burrow, showcasing its intricate patterned body and mesmerizing eyes. The photograph was taken by Louise Murray/Robert Harding and is presented in stunning color, highlighting the natural hues and details of the mantis shrimp's exoskeleton.

As predators with powerful claws capable of delivering lightning-fast strikes, mantis shrimps are fascinating creatures to observe. This close-up shot allows us to appreciate every detail of their anatomy - from their delicate feelers to their well-camouflaged bodies. It serves as a reminder of nature's diversity and complexity beneath our oceans' surface. Whether you're an animal enthusiast or simply appreciate breathtaking photography, this print offers a glimpse into one animal's world while simultaneously celebrating Australia's natural beauty.
