1303_2942 Sea snail on surfgrass
Although the weather forecast called for sunny conditions, a sea fog hovered over Juan de Fuca Strait all day. No doubt this was disappointing to those who have been yearning for some sunshine and warmth, but for photographers the light was fantastic - the fog bounced light back evenly along the beach. I spent the first hour shooting macro close-ups of intertidal plants and animals. Here, a species of sea snail slowly moves across a bed of surfgrass. Tripod, 105mm macro lens, 1.7x teleconverter, polarizing filter. Near Parkinson Creek in Juan de Fuca Provincial Park, Vancouver Island, BC.
