Blue ringed octopus – swimming toward the camera lens by Okinawa Nature Photography

It is always challenging photographing the blue ringed octopus swimming. The autofocus system always has trouble at night picking up on this micro octopus

Blue Ringed Octopus (Hapalochlaena lunulata)

The blue rings become intense when aggrevated. Extremely venomous, can be fatal to humans!
