Local Slugs Make Good! (with assist from Local Photographer Mo2vation :)

[HBDiveGirl]

All us SoCals know the facts: We live in Nudibranch Nirvana.
Large biomass of ophistobranchs, great diversity, wandering-wonders blowing in on exotic currents.... it's a beauty pagent down there.

And this year, The Slug Site has featured some of our gorgeous locals in unique photographs taken by Mo2vation.

Any of YOUR favorites here?

This week: Flyers: http://slugsite.us/bow2007/nudwk629.htm

Yeah, too bad the SoCal nudis are all the size of my little fingernail . . .

Congrats to Ken, as usual, for the great photographs and being featured!

Hopefully your joking... because even an inexperienced diver as myself has seen nudi's atleast 2-3inches long. You must have BIG fingernails.

Grats to Ken for getting a photo printed in Cal Diving News. It's one of his "tribute to Dale Sheckler" shots starring the queen of the underwater runway, da Dette herself, and a Cabezon clearly stunned into stillness by her beauty.

Those nudi photos are stunning! The back lit leaf work is truly outstanding.

Oh, that's just me razzing Claudette, because those guys get goggle-eyed over our enormous nudibranchs here in the PNW!

Yeah, yeah... ( )... next comes the ratfish pitch... and then the "all-U-can-eat" nitrox.... *sigh*. :cool2:

I understand.
It's tough when one doesn't live in SoCal.
Noblesse oblige.
