on a more positive note ...

A coupla weeks ago I got an e-mail from a friend of mine who works at the Olympic Coast Marine Sanctuary. She wanted to know if I'd be interested in contributing some pictures for an exhibit they were doing at their Visitor Center in Port Angeles. So I said, "Sure, just go to my website and pick out the ones you like and I'll send you high-res files for printing."

They picked out 23 of my nudibranch pictures ... and apparently they impressed some pretty important people ...

I'm not important, but I've been impressed by your pictures for a few years now. That is a great display Bob.

It's nice to have some positive influences around here from time to time. =D>

Rather symbolically the sun actually came out as I opened this thread.

Whenever I want to prove that the sound is as amazing as any coral reef I send the doubters and those that say nay to Bob's website.

I'm sure those kids' oohs and aahs are more gratifying than even the most enthusiastic nw dive clubber's praise.

Right-on Bob. :supz:

Very nice Bob! Those are real important people... the most important, in fact.

Thanks for donating the photos.

Way cool, you can see those youngsters are totally amazed, maybe some future divers.



I am with Eric, whenever I get the "Is there even anything to see down there?" question I inevitably end up taking them to your site Bob.

More Bailey-ites in the making! :supz:

I too love Bob's nudi pics (oops, that might have come out wrong....).

This has photo-shop written all over it.

It is very cool to see kids so excited about "sea slugs." I really liked what Bob said about "some pretty important people" liking them. He couldn't be more correct - they're definitely very important people, perhaps the most important.

Good show Bob, I'm jellyious. :notworthy: Those are the best viewers and who knows you might just change some ones life goals once they see how cool slugs are.
