I lifted a metal plate and found this octopus looking after her eggs. Carefully put the plate back down, but discovered on subsequent dive 2 days later, some moron had turned the plate over and left it with eggs and octopus exposed to die. :-(
Runner Up - worthy of note but not a medal winner - an equal 4th place if you like! Runner Up 2010
