UPY British Waters Compact - Highly Commended
'Shooting Octopus'
Paula Bentley
Having not visited St Abbs for 2 years I was absolutely delighted on my first dive there this year with Divestay to drop down, and my first spot was this lovely octopus ! I was able to get a lovely series of pictures showing different poses until at this point he decided to move off. An octopus makes any dive , but this was truly spectacular British dive , full of colour and life to match any tropical dive. I also have gone back to basics, this is taken on a secondhand 9 year old CanonS100 with just the on board flash.
Judge's comment: A great moment, perfectly capturing this sought-after subject in attractive setting. The sort of image that motivates other people to want to take a camera on their dives! - Alex Mustard
