Octopus

Here's another photo post to add to the Blog. This is a shot of a Caribbean Octopus taken late this summer on a Nekton Pilot Scuba Liveaboard Dive trip.

When I first spotted this guy he was free swimming, and his color was a mottled grey. He quickly settled in to this piece of coral, and started to change colors almost immediately to blend in with the surroundings.

Overall, I would say that was about 3 feet long and was swimming in about 70 feet of water on the top of a deep wall.

Prints avaialable for sale.
