Wolf Eels (not really eels) are facinating to observe. They can get into the smallest crevises that look as if they couldn't get their head into it. I also can't imagine chomping into an urchin like they do. Pic taken off Vancouver Isl. with Bonica.

This Red Irish Lord is another common photo subject in the Pacific NW because of it's colouration and insistance on staying still in one spot. They just DON'T move. Pic taken with Bonica MultiShot and Neon Strobe out of Port Hardy BC.
