Full res pictures of some of the artwork for the new album, they are award winning micrographs of various minerals by John I. Koivula

When searching the single cover for Me and You I found the source of the pictures used in the artwork for the new album at John Koivula's profile on Nikon Small World, a photomicrography (as in pictures taken through a microscope) competition. I couldn't find the source for the other pictures shown in the album artwork but I assume they are also micrographs of minerals, although I don't know if they were taken by the same person.

Octopus wrestling involves a diver grappling with a large octopus in shallow water and dragging it to the surface.

Although it was called "wrestling", it was not wrestling per se, as most octopuses are rather skittish and not aggressive at all unless they are provoked, with most cases of provocation ending with the octopus fleeing. The contestants were usually only searching in holes along rocks in the ocean to grab the head of an octopus. Once a diver caught an octopus he continued to pull until the animal gave up.
