Liked the colors of these underwater sea life!

The anemones in the background are very distracting due to the fact that they are illuminated more than the main subject in the foreground. Is this natural or shot in an aquarium?

The anemones in the background were under very low conditions. I had to use a flash to get the foreground,the photo was shot in an aquarium? I could have darkened the back ground,but liked the montage of color.I do see your perspective though.... smiles

Cool shot. Very colorful. What is it?

Well,Brad - to be honest with you.I don't Know!!!

(smiles) If some one out there does! Let us be inlightened! Animal,or under water plant?

These are strawberry anemones, they are in the same class as coral and sea fans. They are poyps which attach themselves to rocks or pilings, many can slowly crawl to move to a new location. They feed on tiny animals and plankton which is caught with thier tentacles and moved to thier mouth in the center.

Thank you Glenn! A mysterious creature for sure.
