On Golf Ball Reef last Sunday, Phil pointed out this little Red Pacific octopus. Getting cold at 51 degrees at the end of the dive, I decided to take one obligatory photo. Wouldn't you know, that's when it decided to put on a little show.

Yeah, Max was right. Fabulous photo. May I share it?
 
Wow Merry! Incredible captures. You really were able to capture all the subtle details of that little Octo's skin pattern. Excellent composition all around.

I've been easing my underwater withdrawals by taking lots of pictures of our terrestrial critters here in Theodore....but damn I think you sent me back into full relapse. This Fall can't come soon enough :coolingoff:
 
Nice pics indeed ! How little was the octopus ?
