Here are some more pictures from Nov. 18, 2008. Winter must be on it's way since visibility was only 10-15 feet. There was a surprising amount of kelp (stalked and bull) still holding on. I even saw some strands of giant kelp floating unattached. It probably drifted in from the west coast. Near the end of the dive, as I was flailing into place over some surfgrass for a self-portrait, I almost bumped into a rare rock greenling. They are the same size and shape as kelp greenlings, but they have a different pattern and different colours. In 11 years of diving, this is the first one I've seen. Unfortunately it took off while my camera was sitting out of reach with the timer going.
