Subject: Subject: Like a Venetian Murano crystal chandelier; These crystal-like tubes hanging from the sealing of a rocky overhang on a shallow rocky reef in Mauritius are not a strange aquatic life form but the egg capsules of a mollusc; the Branched Murex (Chicoreus ramosus) sea snail.
The females of these big molluscs (here in this clip they are hanging against the sealing of the rocky overhang and covered with reddish-brown algae) lay clusters of capsules containing between 200 and 700 eggs .
Technique: Although biologically very interesting, shots like these miss suspense and action in order to keep the audience engaged. To retain the spectators’ attention we created a series of short individual consecutive shots and limited the total length of the clip.
