ISO accidentally left at 400, lighting sub par. Sigh. Today was one of those days when I go out with a bunch of people and try to focus on finding things for them to see, or helping ID things, and end up taking very few photos. Oh well. It was fun all the same, and there were plenty of other photographers on hand. Met two more nudibranch folks, Bill (?) and Doug, who said they were collecting data and were planning a publication with Jeff Goddard. Much like the two guys I met last time at Pillar Pt (whose names I forget), these two lamented the paucity of slugs to be found relative to 10 or 20 years ago, glory days of untold abundance and disversity, apparently.
