Description

Wall diving off Papua New Guinea at 90 feet with two captured Nautilus was one of the highlights of a two week trip on the Telita. In this image she doesnt look 66 feet long but the visibility was so good that morning it was over 200 feet! Look at the outrigger next to her. The Nautilus stayed with us for only a few minutes after their release; seeking the 950 foot depths from which they were caught.
