British Waters Macro runner-up. Swanage Sea Hare by Paul Pettitt (UK) in Swanage Pier, Dorset, UK. “This picture of a sea hare was taken just before the major restoration works commenced on Swanage pier. The subject was crawling along a broken pier leg, and was perfectly positioned for me to take a picture. These creatures are often mistaken for nudibranchs, but are a different group of sea slugs. The sea hare’s colour tends to adhere closely to the colour of the weed on which it feeds ... Its my quest to promote the beautiful Sea life we have here in the UK”.
