RemarksPeppermint shrimp are tiny shrimp named for the long red stripes on their body. I set off to photograph one, and looked inside dozens of vase sponges until I finally found this one hanging out. I used a small depth of field to keep just the eyes in focus and blur the background into a soft pink.
