The winning images from the University of Miami Rosenstiel School's Underwater Photography Contest 2009 include a whitetip shark, boxer crabs, and a pygmy seahorse.
Boxer crabs (Lybia tesselata) in Bunaken, Manado, North Sulawesi, Indonesia
These crabs live on hard coral and, to defend themselves, carry small anemones in their claws. The crabs wave stinging tentacles in the faces of predators.
This photograph by Marchione Giacomo won the best overall prize.
