Aliens Everywhere! During the summer we get large congrigations of Moon Jellies. These groupings only last a couple weeks and sometimes we can see thousands during the course of a dive.

Runaway Red Octopus! This lovely little Pacific Red Octopus had enough of the lime light and decided to speed off. I really enjoy the blurr of following it while swimming. It only went 15-20ft then settled down again!

On a recent dive just off Vancouver Island we ran into a school of 12-15 Spiny Dogfish Sharks. They were standoffish at first then this 5-6 footer swam up for a closer look and I managed to get this close up from only a couple 4-5ft away! Enjoy!

Juvenille Wolf Eel! These younger wolf eels have the most bright and beautiful colours. Later in life they take on a more subdued grey. This one was hiding out under some bark at about 40ft and was only about 24inches long.

Standing out in a Crowd! There always has to be one part of a subject that doesn't quite fit the norm. In this case one of several hundred jacks in a large bait ball was going the opposite direction.

Jelly on Oiled Canvas. This Jellyfish was just below the surface with slightly choppy water. This allowed the rock face from above to be reflected by the surface giving it the oiled look. Taken with a Canon T2I, tokina 10-17mm in a Aquatica Housing.

UnNatural Colour! The colours and shapes under the sea are amazing. This Hot Pink Frogfish sure stood out when moving but blended in almost perfectly in the sponges. So strange to see an ambush hunter hidingout with such a loud outfit:)

One of the worlds most deadly marine animals but singularly one of the most beautiful and vibrant at the same time. This small Blue Ring Octopus paused just before jetting away.
