<-----------<<<< My avatar hermit crab was about 1/2" long. I took that picture in the Long Island Sound probably at night from a couple of inches away.
It doesn't matter if it was night or day because the visability here in New York in the western Sound varies from zero to about 18 inches. Normally if you want to see your depth gauge, you have to put it inside your mask.
Maine lobsters like it and I am basically a lobster diver so "most" but not all of my diving was here and all of the diving is with "feel".
Thats also why I always carried a big dive knife. When a shark would bump me, I slit my throat to spite him. ;Nailbiting
The next 6 pictures are underwater scenes here. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
They may be hard to see except under a UV light.
Of course my favorite dive sites are all in French Polynesia like Tahiti
