Nice picture. But in more than 2000 dives in the area I've never seen an octopus "flying" if not harassed by the guide, and on the contrary I've seen many photos like this. All these photographers apparently are very lucky to see this unnatural behaviour. If not harassed, the octopus crawls on the bottom.

Populations of large marine predators such as sharks are in dangerous decline. Recent scientific studies report declines of up to 99% for several shark species such as the oceanic whitetip shark in the Gulf of Mexico. Studies also indicate that the reduction in number of larger coastal species such as bull, hammerhead, and tiger sharks may be as high as 80% in the Atlantic Ocean.
