Comments	Went out on a night tide this evening (-2.5) and searched for sand dollars to photograph. Found several, but all were, to some extent, damaged. Perhaps from our fall storm surges? Photo taken with the Pentax Optio W10 underwater camera, holding flashlight with one hand, shooting with the other!
