Alexander Semenov is a marine biologist stationed at the White Sea Biological Station (WSBS), a remote research centre that is located on the Karelsky Coast in northwest Russia. Semenov is part of the dive team at WSBS and during his excursions, takes close-up shots of the truly beautiful and bizarre fauna lurking in the depth of the White Sea.

WOW! These are amazing pics! I really like the Caprella septentrionali which looks like an evil red praying mantis
Striking indeed. It was tough selecting the ones to put up here.
My favourite has to be the cute little porcupine, Coryphella verrucosa. Semenov loves the Clione the best, apparently.
