Underwater creatures such as leafy sea dragon, bearded scorpion fish, hairy frogfish and so on are considered masters of deception. These creatures camouflage cleverly to adapt to their environment. They have to hide themselves in order to escape from the hunting of predators. The photographer from Washington, Brandon Cole has traveled the world and created a photo collection of these cute creatures. Brandon said that it was hard to see these underwater creatures straight away because they often camouflage against corals or sand and live in association with that particular coral. Let’s have a look at the photos below and try finding them:
