Had a great trip. Monterey Aquarium was fun, though I expected it to be bigger. I would say if you had gone to the Long Beach Aquarium, it is very similar in style and selection.

Here are a few of my shots. I shot with my good ol' 20D, using mostly 24-70L, though a few of the smaller critters got the 100mm treatment. Mostly flash (either with STE2, or on camera with Lightsphere) but a few, like the jellies, were done available light ISO 1600.

A face even a mother would not love:

very cool pics ;) im not very fond of jellyfish though,i got stung by one that got stuck around my throat and i had a reaction to it so i couldnt breathe.what kind of jellyfish were they?even though i hate jellyfish those are very cool looking.
 
Amazing photos! I especially love the jellyfish photos, they have quite a dramatic feel to them.
 
Nifty pictures! I cannot get your gallery site to work though. Are you Firefox browser compatible?
