Protection in numbers for these soldier crabs on the open beach. In North Queensland they are often the prey for Gulls and Kingfishers. They stand out from the beach with their vivid blue, yet when moving on mass like this another form of protection is achieved by the confusion of hundreds of glinting shells in the sunshine, making it hard to target an individual.
These images are ultra-wide panorama, meaning they have a size ratio of 5:1 or for every 10 inches tall they are then the width is 50 inches. This is probably the best way to take in the majesty of this scene. The original image is constructed from several high resolution photographs to obtain and retain as much detail and vibrance as possible from the moment. Compositions are sourced in advance of shooting too, unlike when this type of panorama form factor is produced by cropping a single more square frame shot.
