For the last few years, I've traveled to Maui to spend the Thanksgiving holiday - it's just starting to get cold in LA, and it's a short flight to a convenient, tropical destination.
The diving conditions weren't great - there was a strong current around many of the sites that I had intended to dive, so we ended up at the back wall of Molokini at least four or five times. The recent earthquake shook loose a fair amount of rocks off the side of the crater, tearing out some of the coral below the surface, and leaving many rocks balanced precariously on shallow ledges. Remind yourself to keep an eye out for falling debris... 
A few photos to whet the appetite...finals start next week, so it might be some time before the rest show up.
This one's still aRGB - when will all browsers support color profiles? I won't comment on the fin posture
My first harlequin! Actually, there was a male/female pair, but the DMs seem concerned with moving us around, so I never had a chance to get the two of them in the same shot.
Pencil urchins everywhere...this is around 60ft depth to give an idea of the visibility.
I think I saw more nudibranchs on one dive this trip than I had seen in the last three years in Maui...not a bad thing.
Despite my familiarity with the area, it seems there's always something I haven't seen or photographed before. I can't complain. Always appreciate comments or strong criticism
