Here is a tiny Porter's Chromidoris (if they are still Chromodoris)
Sometimes you just can't get in front of one.

Sometimes the back side looks just as good. Very nice depth of field.

Did you shoot him in LA area or overseas ? How did you place Kim on green background capture and release shot above water ?

This was shot at Anacapa, probably at Underwater Arch, but not clear from my memory. When I shoot nudibranchs, I often take a home made stage down with me, basically a 1/4 inch thick piece of Al with some legs made from loc-line arms. I have a series of colored plastic pieces that I can put the nudi on and sometimes have a piece of black glass used for stained glass that I also use if I want reflections. All of this in homage to David Doubilet's nudibranch series from Indonesia that he shot on a special stage made by the Nat Geo boys.
