These are really amazing pictures YellowEye! I love the alien landscape one, those orange things are awesome! That shrimp was so cool! You really captured him with great lighting! I love how colorful it is!
Can't wait to see more or your pics. I love keystone! I hope gdog & scubi Do can see the keystone wonders soon!

We had 2 great dives! 86 min & 65 min! We saw a huge school of rockfish at the end of the jetty! It was one of my greatest diving moments to swim with them.
Live Long And Prosper!!!

Nice shots! I think that shrimp is the Cataleptic shrimp (Lebbeus catalepsis).

MY BABY! Lebbeus catalepsis, one of the species I discovered and named. First time I've heard of one from the inside waters; normally see them out at Sekiu. Awesome find!

Never know where your kids will show up...

Considering how LOOONG ago it was that you did your research out there at Sekiu on this shrimp, perhaps this is actually your GRANDbaby, not your baby. :rawlings:
