Best of Mike #79

My friend and fellow diver, Randy,  tells me this is  Angel Hair Coral ... and that's a great name for it .

It is very hair like in it's texture and consistency. It definitely moves like hair as is sways back and forth in the currents. It even feels like hair.

I suspect it's really the extended polyps of some kind of coral.

But I can tell you for sure that it's both pretty and exotic ... and it makes me smile every time I see it.
