Throwback to 2014 when baby diver Brian (13 total dives) hopped into the Blue Hole in Belize and watched as the sharks circled until one decided to dive straight down and disappear. That wasn't unsettling at all, nope nope nope.

This small rabbit lives near our shed and hopped out for a snack of grass in front of our strawberry patch. This one is about a third of the size of the adults we see around the yard. Captured with my OM-1 + 150-600mm telephoto

Subjects in the water column like this chameleon shrimp are often quite challenging with a macro lens like the M.Zuiko 60mm. The OM-1 autofocus picked up the subject and got the eyes in crisp focus.

This is a blue chromis with an isopod attached. These critters will munch on whatever the fish eats and are a drag on the animal due to their large relative size.

We got hit with yet another large storm, this time with wet, heavy snow and lots of wind! I don't know exactly how much we got due to drifting and a bunch of snow hanging around from the last large storm, but it was a pile.
