Cypress Point, Inner wash rocks, 5-14-14

Greg and I again encountered very calm conditions so dived Cypress Point again, this time the inner wash rocks.  Wonderful dive.  20 to 30 ft visibility.


 Greg's getting a closeup of a small lingcod while being carefully observed by a black and yellow rockfish.
 Now Greg is getting a shot of both the rockfish and the lingcod.
 The patient rockfish let me take a closeup too.
 Beautiful young lingcod.
 Cool looking anemone, species TBD.
 We saw many nudibranchs of several different species, wish I'd been using my macro lens instead of by 10-17 mm Tokina fisheye lens, though it is very versatile.  I think this is a white dendronotid.
 Orange and white nudibranch (Catalina Triopha) beside a big anemone.
Small (2 inch) sea star, maybe a juvenile?
