The second dive this day was one that many Monterey and Carmel divers can relate to...having a friendly Harbor Seal follow you around.  This one was kind enough to pose for me and even played hide-and-seek with Whelan.  One rock had about 11-12 species of nudibranchs on it...but I was too focused on the chubby seal. A new macro lens and a cooperative subject, especially a subject I had no usable images of until this dive, made for quite a memorable experience.
