Southern Bobtail Squid. Taken in Port Philip Bay Melbourne. Olympus 5060. Nikonos sb105 and Sea&Sea ys90 duo.
I got a really close up shot of a cuttle fish. HE changed colours and was so beautiful. This shot was taken during the mating season when these fish become extremley territorial and sometimes even aggressive. Exciting!
Scorpion Fish ... What's next for dinner. I like how the outline of the fish slowly forms from the eye as you look at it.

Close up of a jelly that almost landed straight on my face as I was ascending to take a picture of a sunburst through some kelp. Unfortunately I had the ISO at 200 so it came out a lot grainier than I would have liked, but at least it came out smile

This is an interesting, not good, picture. This was taken in Monterey. It's a half-eaten Mola Mola that was still alive when I found it. At first I thought "shark" but later found out the carnage was probably the work of sea lions.
