I've never done a paypal transaction. How does it work. :dontknow: I want to buy copies of your book too!! :bounce: I absolutely LOVE your work. I can just imagine the wonder in the eyes of the kids when their parents show them these pages. Well Done Jan!!! =D> Just PM me your address, send me a ch...

If you never got wet in your drysuit - maybe, just maybe you don't dive often enough !

Nice indeed, color coordinated marine life and the model. Thanks for sharing John.

Arrrr....keep your harpoon blades sharpened as we go off on the quest for the white Great sculpin! At least we can refer to Jan as Ishmael and NOT Ahab! Or....have you lost a leg to the white Great sculpin and not told us about it, Jan? #-o - John Thank you John, I do prefer to be Ishmael , for he ...

Thanks for the warning.

So, Jan.....should we now "call you Ismael"???? - John ...having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world. It is a way I have of driving off the spleen, and regulating the cir...

When I took picture of the "deflated" tunicate, I did not know what I was looking at. Only when I looked at it at home on the computer screen I realized what it was.

I don't know if this is the Moby Dick of Great sculpins, but it sure doesn't fit their usual camo appearance

I always like to see where I am swimming. And see what lurks is below me. Remember JAWS?

Now I know I am an odd one
I not only "wear" snorkel at all dives, but I use it on every dive! When I swim out to deeper water and then after dive back, I always look for critters near the surface. And the exhaust bubbles from my reg don't scare them away..

Lynne, thank you very much for your kind words.
I set up PayPal: send funds to: honkoc@hotmail.com. Type in the address books should be send to. The cost per book is $26 plus 2.50 P&H. Jan

Great show Val. Shaking hands with octo - what, no gloves? Must be warmer your way south then here
Aren't Hoodies great?

Lately, the jellies at Keystone appear little tattered, but still favored transportation for lot of tiny critters..

Nice shot Tom. Stubby squid eggs (Rossia pacifica),

GW, I am glad you like the book ! And now back to our regular schedule :book: It is still not clearly understood why some of the nudibranch engage in what is called tailing, queuing or tailgating. It starts with one slug following the mucus trail of another and then contact the tail end and follow t...

and they blame global warming for the rise in sea levels!

Vegetarian? HA! True colors exposed. Carnivore!

You two are true trailblazers! Another wonderful peek into the Canadian wonderland. Thank you for sharing, Val, what a way to celebrate a birthday!

I think the first one is White sea cucumber Eupentacta quinquensemita and the little fish is Blackeye goby Rhinogobiops nicholsii

From the underside of a floating dock.

Don't use depth as eliminating factor for the savignyi. I found them in two feet and close to edge of float with plenty of light, so darkness is also not an issue....

When you finish the "real" book, can you airmail one to Thailand for me? Lowell Hi Lowell, good to hear from you ! I hope Thailand is good to you. Of course I will send the book to you if and when it is finished. Not for this Christmas, but in Thailand - Christmas is probably not a holida...

Thank you LCF - OK, just so you don’t think that I am lazy and ignore the book issue. Here is a little update. I am working on it and it will not simply be just a reprint of the pages you see on this thread. So it is more work for me, but since it is work of love I I am not a professional writer/ ph...
