Had one fool me like that in Seattle waters once.
I was looking at a rock didn't notice anything there. Moved down the wall a bit only to have my dive buddy motion for me to return.
She had spotted a small Red Octo sitting right where I had been looking.
The only way she noticed it was because the octo breathed. She caught the quick movement.
These critters are masters of disguise.

This 5 minute video has the same octo as last scene but very interesting footage on the front end.

LMFAO!!!!
I'm at work and cant watch the links till i get home tonight. I'm looking forward to it!
I FINALLY got a few shots of an octo in a cave in a blue hole last sunday.
The bugger was 4' accorss tip to tip, i hadn't known they got so large. Easy to spot since i thought the roof was comming in!!!
My little 7.2 MP doesn't do it justice and by the time i'd "gone for back up" it'd vanished.
I guess i'll just have to keep going back there!
Is this pic gonna attach and display?........

That's exactly why I tell people that I know that I've seen one octopus while diving, but I have no idea how many saw me.
