I like the baby following the mother. So sweet...

For the three min safety stop it's a pity you forgot not to breath before shooting... otherwise it is a nice shot. I often don't remember to hold my breath.

All three very nice. The whitemargin nudi looks like it could be straight out of a window display in a Parisian pastry shop. Sweet!

Great shots, Jim! The mother and offspring pic belongs in a book somewhere, as do many of your other shots.IMO
There's something about looking up and seeing whats on the surface that always intrigues me. I wonder how many forget to look up or out into the deep blue every now and then?

Great pictures!

Coleman calls the behavior in the first picture "tailgating" and thinks it is a prelude to mating.

Thanks.
I am ALWAYS looking out into the deep blue when hanging on that anchor line for three minutes. You can call me "BAIT".

I wondered if that was the case.
If so, that boy don't look big enough to take her on!

Jim, about how big was the White-Margin Nudibranch ? I have seen them but they seem much "slimmer" than this one.

Do you even have particles in your water? I'm disgusted!
