Hi Jan,
Your photography is always terrific, but you've outdone yourself with that image of nudibranch eggs - incredible detail!
Plus, I always enjoy seeing photos of things named for the wrong color; like the yellow "White Nudibranch" or a purple "Ochre Star" or a yellow/green "Red Irish Lord". Keep up the good work!
Colorfully yours,
Alex

Giant sea cucumber. Contributing to the bad visibility on my dive in Langley Harbor.

Attention divers! Those little "flags" streaming from the ends of Red sea urchins are not what you think they are ...
Read all about it.

Thank you Gdog for kind words.
What a difference one month does. I revisited Driftwood Park and found the small cluster of Japanese wireweed in bad shape. Probably a seasonal thing. Algae likes the higher summer temperatures and begins to cover other organism.
