Santa Barbara Janolus at Monterey Wharf 2. We have been seeing these up here the last bunch of years in the fall. They used to not be this far north.

Bay Pipefish in eel grass at Monterey Wharf 2. He was hiding in the eel grass and was difficult to get a clear shot of but I managed to capture this dramatic image.
