Good footage, very clear:)
Hi Claire,
That looks like it was a great trip, with fantastic footage of the seals. :cool:
I've got a trivia question though. What was that wee eel like thing in view at the 1 minute 17 second mark? I see them ocassionally but have never found out precisely what they are. :o
It's a butterfish (Pholis gunnellus).

Never mind the wreck and seal diving, we should just head back there for another shore dive and lobster slaughter!!

Yes, that was a cuttlefish. I saw a much much bigger version of it at Anchor Point last week.
Good Video, looking forward to October!
