That's a small octopus in the first image. Are the others of similar size?

The mimic octopus was a bit bigger, but none of them were big enough to cause difficulty framing with a 90mm lens on APS-C. The blue-ringed octopus was quite small - the sand grains give a rough scale reference.

I started looking at airfares and saw some pretty low fares from LAX to Manila. Then I saw the flight times...

Yeah, 15 hours is a significant chunk, but Anilao is not too far from the airport, and you can stay at a resort and dive up to 4 times a day like on a liveaboard.
