Summary

Description Photo shot through a polarizing filter of a Cranchiidae sp from the Operation Deep Scope Expedition 2004. This squid, about four-inches across, uses transparency to hide from potential predators. Open-water divers can more easily observe these creatures with polarizing filters. Compare the polarized and unpolarized images to one another.
