Octopus vulgaris, perhaps this moment, which captures the first defensive reaction by protecting the tips of the tentacles, is the one I like the most of the ones I have, because of its balance and tension, everything changes in a fraction of a second.
If it were spearfishing it would be harpooned, it's illegal, but unfortunately every year we see how they are taken out and exploited.

Remaining shell probably of the crustacean Maja crispata or Cámbara. Normally difficult to spot with the naked eye except for its bulging yellow eyes; its camouflage strategy is to cover itself with algae and feather-like cnidarians of the genus Aglaopheniidae.
