Wow! What a wonderful video! Loved the obvious knowledge of how to get the best photos of reluctant subjects. Thanks for sharing!

At the beginning of the video, there were three Ramora riding on/with the turtle. Is that what you are referring to?

Kim, you would never regret it. Take your classroom and pool in Canada and finish your open water dives with your friends at Leverick. You do 2 shallow dives the first day, 2 dives the second day, and your are certified. You will love the new world of underwater. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" />

Around the 38 second mark is the second octopus we saw that dive on the rhode. Is that it?

At the 28 second mark is a stingray mostly buried in sand with the tail clearly visible.
