This lovely apnea diver struck a relaxed pose for me under the ice of Morrison's Quarry. Nikonos V, 12mm Sea & Sea lens, manual exposure with Ikelite 150 strobe. Cropped for subject and colour corrected.
This Decorator War Bonnet was shot on the world famous Browning Wall near Port Hardy B.C. The wall drops off to hundreds of feet. I used a Nikon D2X with a 105 macro lense.

This is a Sea Nettle (Chrysaora). They're usually found in large groups along the shore or in open water in the pacific northwest. This species of sea jelly will actually swim up as close to the shoreline as it can without having to stop swimming.
