Ama (海女, "sea women") are Japanese divers famous for collecting pearls
Japanese tradition holds that the practice of ama may be 2,000 years old
(At a party yesterday I was discussing oceanic feeling and snorkeling with Molly Steele, who told me about the beautiful sea women free divers of Japan <3)

What colour are the backs of abalone?
Funniest thing happened today. My dad, his friend and I went free diving for paua (abalone), and we came back to the boat and had a discussion. We were just commenting on the dive, how clear the water was and how calm it was, when we got into an argument about how we find paua. He said it was really easy to find, them being blue/green for him and he can see them easily because of that. I said, no, they're freaking pink, what on earth was he talking about? We then waited, fuming until my dad's friend came back from his dive, and asked him, what colour was the back of paua?
He said, "idiots, they're camouflaged".
And that is how my dad and I came to the realization that we were both colourblind.

Bass and chubs chillin in the kelp
Back to my usual oceanic bullshit. It’s been lovely getting to know the Pacific Ocean. Will be going back to the Atlantic soon. Yes, the Pacific is special, but let’s not be Pacific supremacists here. All the seas are gloriously one.
7/18/23: some snorkel sightings, Crescent Bay Beach, Laguna Beach, CA:
Harbor seal
Kelp bass
Topsmelt silverside
Garibaldi
Zebra-perch sea chub
See my iNaturalist observations.
