Imperial Nudibranchs
I consider these to be both a lucky and rare find. They all but disappeared from Hawaiian waters in the 1980's and started to return in the mid 1990's. These are the only two I have seen here.

I am always amazed at how clear the water seems and how rich your colors are. Are you doing much editing and if so what are you doing?

The water is very clear most of the time. That is no illusion or editing fix.
I edit every photo in Photoshop 7.0. I crop the vast majority of them to zoom in on the subject. I then use "Auto Levels" and the "Unsharp Mask". On some I adjust the brightness. That's about it.
 
The only nudis I ever see, beside da Beast, is garden slugs around my fish pond....do they count? :eyebrow:
 
very very cool pictures
makes me sad, as mine come out crap in comparison
