OK – going to try switching things up a little bit and I’m going to try posting more recent photos for a while. Since I’m back in the Pacific Northwest, that means a bunch of critters from the chilly waters up here. I might mix…
A lot of the fish in the PNW waters have grumpy looking faces, but this guy takes the prize…
Pleurobranchs differ from Nudibranchs in that their gills tend to be on the right side of their bodies as opposed to towards the tail on their back. I’ve been able to find some Pleurobranchs both in Bali and in Florida, but I’m feeling lazy about…
A less common gallinule, I only got to see a couple of these Grey-headed Swamphens while in Florida…
I’m not even sure what kind of fish these are on, but I spotted these two separate cases of fish parasites while diving in the PNW during my first visit. The first one is a little tough to spot, but look for the small isopod…
A common denizen of the Blue Heron Bridge, I actually passed these guys up for photographs more often than not because of how difficult they are to frame in the shot because of those large gangly arms…
Just a couple long exposures with some star trails taken in Bryce Canyon NP…
Well, I’m getting this video finished up just in time to keep the schedule of sharing a video the first Sunday of each month… this round is another set of timelapse highlights from travels in Washington, California, and Utah. If you’re interested, check out some…
Another ambush predator, but this time in the chilly waters of the Pacific Northwest, these Buffalo Sculpin (at least I think they are all Buffalo Sculpin) have a camouflage that basically makes them look like a grumpy rock with eyeballs…
Scorpionfish are masters of camouflage – which is great for their hunting strategy since they basically just sit still until some fish swims in front of their large mouths and then they just suck them in… but it also makes them dangerous for careless divers…
A tiny little mollusk/sea slug that I managed to find several of at the Blue Heron Bridge, these Flapping Dingbats or Batwing Slugs (Gastropteron chacmolis) only grow to about 3-7mm.
