Butterfly House 9/6

[ecophotog]

Conditions were fairly calm and entry/exit was simple. Viz was roughly 20 feet once on the outer side of the rocks. No large animals of any kind, and only a few mid sized fish. One cabezon sitting in the algae. Not a very productive spot for photography on this particular dive. Did manage to get a few shots of the kelp looking sort of cool. I was able to swim in the shallow space near the rocks where usually it is too rough to hang out for long.

I really like your pics, hope when I dive in Monterey it looks that cool. Thanks for sharing. Doug
