Thanks,

Hi Gang,
A blue and black Sola 1200 light was lost at the alki junkpile off of the educational non-profit PMR's video rig during a live dive for students on the argosy boat last week. If anyone finds it can you please contact Pat@marinescienceafloat.org
Thanks,
David

Great video Stephen
Which camera and tripod are you using?

So happy it's Rhamphocottus season again.

These ridiculous creatures never cease to amuse.
This was one of three we saw yesterday at the Junkpile:

Love the Paristichopus! Nice macro work Laura. Someone's liking their new tripod...

Another beautiful video Nolan. Nice work.

Hello fellow invert enthusiasts. I need some help positively id-ing this comb jelly before I include it in a video for students. I think it may be a Bolinopsis infundibulum but need to make sure. I shot the video below at Three Tree Point last night and the creature was 2- 2 1/2 inches long. http://...

Thanks Jerry! Starting to really enjoy having a strobe.

Thanks Greg. I knew I'd be tossing you a softball there:)

Found this Stubby having a nice shrimp dinner at Redondo this past week. Can anyone help me id the shrimp?
Thanks,
David

I found this worm at the base of some eel grass on a night dive at Redondo. Have looked through my Marine Life of the Pacific and haven't found an exact match. Is it some type of spaghetti worm?

That Cove 2 Ling is the most aggressive I have encountered as well. It was guarding a 25 foot radius around the egg mass on the horizontal piling and actually bit my dive buddy. If the Lings were like that at Edmonds no one would ever get in the water.

Great footage but someone is playing with fire messing with a Ling on eggs.:P

Advice needed.
Do folks think the EPl - 1 would be a step up, down or lateral from my current Canon G10 in a canon housing?
I really like the macro on the G10, Would the Olympus compare?

A few months back I came across an octo denned in Cove 2 and shot this picture of what, based on Greg's comment in this thread, I now believe to be a spermatophore being blown out of the siphon. Does anyone know how long the females hold on to the spermatophore before ejecting it or just what is goi...

Apparently getting pretty butterfingered these days.

Lost Blue Promate Matrix mask at Redondo (parking lot?) a couple of weeks back.

Lost Yellow /Green Promate Matrix mask w/ blue Promate snorkel today at Cove 2

Thanks,

David

The Melibes are also out in force at the Eelgrass bed at Redondo.

Checking us out? Ramming into us was my experience:P.

...with exotic critters like this to hunt for at home!

a couple of weeks ago at Three Tree:

I am just a point and shoot guy without a strobe but I love sharing our local critters with folks.

Hi folks,
My new bc knife with a 3 inch serrated blade slipped out of it's "locking " case today at EUP on it's maiden voyage
Could be anywhere along the route shore /jetty way/cathedrals/cathedral way/eelgrass/north shore. A frosty cold one for anyone who happens to find it.
Thanks,
dave

I need to pick up a reasonably priced tank soon.
Ideal would be lp steel 100 but I am open to hp steel or lp aluminum up to 120
thanks

Hey D.M,
I have a pair of large twin jets I might be willing to swap for the xls.
