I have no idea how you saw this little guy/gal.
I saw you stop and wedge deeply into the rocks. Even after I approached and hovered to look more closely, I thought you were shooting a very nice... rock!!

When I finally made out the creature, it looked like a white flatworm.

Nice find, Eagle-eye. Great picture.

(P.S. Don't miss the link (at the end of the page) to other beautiful nudibranch photos on Ken's pbase gallery.)

Way to go, Ken. I need to follow you around with my video camera and film in your wake! You're the man! Of course the nudi is the man and the woman!! I'm thinking I may want to morph into a hermaphrodite this year.

I'm thinking I may want to morph into a hermaphrodite this year.

That's it! I'm not going back to Catalina!

Congratulations!

I'm familiar with the photographer's familiar's experience of the dive: Photographer hovers motionless over something for more time than I can amuse myself practicing my back kick. Photographer finally finishes and takes off. I make a flyby to try to figure out what on earth he was so fascinated with. I see crabs. Later pictures prove to be a juvenile wolf eel eating a nudibranch or something equally delightful.

That describes a lot of my dives with my picture-taking buddies
