We drove 14 hours straight to find the leafy sea dragon. It was worth every minute of the drive. They really are the most incredible fish. Watching them move so peacefully throughout their habitat is something I'll always remember.

A rare sighting of mating squid. These were photographed in the cold waters of Victoria, Australia. It was quite an aggressive display as the male (behind) bucked back and forth. It lasted for a minute.
