Haven't had much time to play with the 'podes lately, but wanted to post a couple of pics...
Shelby is... well... in the shell, looking festive. I pulled out the macro lens for the close-up of Quattro. I'm surprised the flash lit him up. Oddly enough, I never realized octopus suckers had a texture. I always thought they were smooth inside. I know several people have commented on not using flash because they didn't want to scare their octopus, but these guys seem impervious to flash. Tarzan will sometimes withdraw into his hole (not too quickly), but none of them ever seems to freak out or ink. Of course they've been subjected to "things that go flash in the night" all of their lives, so maybe it's just conditioning.
