Diamond squid, Thysanoteuthis rhombus (3 cm)
Balayan Bay, Luzon, the Philippines

An unusual image of a juvenile diamond squid, which demonstrated complex poses while sparkling in different colours in front of Magnus’ camera. As an adult, it is a large squid that can reach one metre in length and weigh up to 30 kg. This unusual cephalopod lives in pairs. If one of them is caught by a fisherman, the other will remain in the area until it is also caught.
