Some video frame grabs from this morning at willis pt. with Hyper-limits. -Went down the wall to the sponges 120-130 ft. deep. Lots of moon/water jellyfish and "clumpy white stuff". Vis was nevertheless suprisingly good.
Nice pics Mark. Is that Al with a single tank? Wow you don't see that every day.

Yeah that me with a single tank, Double are a lot more fun except when is time to walk up the hill after the dive. :wink:

He had to ditch the other one at 300 ft to decoy away the six-gill. It's lucky I had my bailout bottle to share with him on the 2-hour deco stop.
I'd believe you but no six gill is dumb enough to fall for that old trick.

Some pretty nice pics! I have a question about the twelfth picture, though. How large is that creature or sponge there? It looks big, as the diver appears smaller than it, at least from this perspective. :)

Catch you later,

That is commonly know as a Plumose Anemone. The largest I have seen was about 40cm (3 feet, 4 inches) long.
