    Spot The Critter: Camouflaged Sea Creatures
    Can you spot the critter?

    These amazing images show the lengths - or is that depths? - these undersea creatures go to disguise themselves.

    British photographer Ed Brown captured these pictures last month at Lembeh Strait in Indonesia.

    He explains: "The pictures were taken on my latest trip to Indonesia, a place called Lembeh Strait, well known to divers for having some of the best "muck diving" in the world. Muck diving can be characterised by the black sand and general bleakness of the seabed. It doesn't look much, but hides some of the weirdest critters you'll find underwater. The occasional coral outcrops house some of the more colourful examples; the pygmy seahorse (Hippocampus bargibanti) being a particular favourite of mine, and only about 2cm big."
