Coral Up Close

This photo was taken underwater with my old Olympus C700 this year in Okinawa and the macro attachment on my DIV housing.

I like the very clear definition in this photo. The polyps on this coral are rather large, and they stand out very nicely. I can dig up the species name if anyone is interested.

BTW, you can even count the number of tentacles per polyp. The true corals have 6 or a multiple of 6 tentacles.
