Black Eyed Gobys are everywhere up here in the PNW, but appear quite dull to the naked eye. I love their pink hue and ability to just sit and chill on the bottom with their pectoral fins.

Nice look at the underside. Have no fear folks, this Pteraster will exact revenge with copious amount of mucus. They're going to have a good ole slime fest.

Yesterday I took a trip on the ZERO from Koege to the #Arken Museum, which is about 12 nautical miles away. Arken exhibits modern contemporary art by Danish #artists.
The #sailing trip was a bit wobbly as the good wind produced lots of short #waves.

Am I losing my shit or did that Phaeodarian (sparkly stick ball in far right) catch a fish?! You'll have to zoom but I think I can make out a fish tail.

This Amphipod on the Crinoid has some cool legs. I zoomed in so you can see them wiggle.
