Galapagos, May 2018 We joined Muench Workshops 2018 Galapagos photography workshop aboard the yacht Natural Paradise and experienced the boundless natural wonders and wildlife of the Galápagos Islands.  Ecuador is doing a terrific job of protecting and preserving this fragile environment from over-visitation. One of the most colorful creatures is the Sally Lightfoot Crab.  Living in Maryland as we do, when I first saw one of these walking around, I thought, “how can that steamed crab be walking around like that...it’s cooked and ready to eat!” [caption id="attachment_54" align="alignnone" width="768"] Sally Lightfoot Crab - Espumilla Beach, Galapagos Islands[/caption]
