I visited Skyline Wall as the tide and current cycle again provide friendlier environment.
Couple of young Wolfies in their sea cucumber garden.

The Orange Feather Duster Worms is seldom orange, at least at Keystone the prevailing color is red.

Lovely detailed images as always - congratulations!
Pardon my ignorance but, in the upper photo of the red rock crab panel, what is the crab walking across?
Curiously yours,
Alex

Fun shots as usual!
You've probably mentioned this before, but where is this anchor?
