Hi Jan,
OK, I give up and demonstrate my ignorance - What is the whitish spiny looking thing in the fourth panel (with the Dock Shrimp)?
BTW: Wonderful photos as always!
Curiously yours,

Great photos Jan! I like how you not only have a close photo, but a farther out phot so you get the size of the creature.

Thank you. I am trying to present what I have seen on my dive, and also the environment the critter lives in.
