Sea LifeGraphics play a large part in the composition of any work of art.  It often takes more than an interesting or exotic subject to make an image more than a text book shot.  That is to say what may be of interest as a specimen will not always be artistically strong to the viewer.

This photograph of a sea anemone(?) was apparently taken in an aquarium under UV or black light, thus the blue-green hues.  The depth of focus is well done starting with the tips in the foreground and getting softer as the depth increases.  The photographer has managed to fill the frame with the subject to eliminate any distracting elements.

This is a good photograph of this specimen however I wish there were something of more interest going on such as a small fish swimming among the tentacles.  But I suppose if a food source such as a fish entered the area it would be history in no time.
