EDITORS COMMENTS
Octo-stretching its way to a clamshell spa retreat! This veined octopus knows how to unwind in style. With a wide-angle macro lens, photographer Alex Mustard captures the incredible moment as this cephalopod stretches out from its cozy den inside an old clam shell. Talk about luxury living! Found in the Lembeh Strait of Indonesia's North Sulawesi, this little mollusk is no ordinary creature. Its vibrant colors and intricate patterns make it a true underwater fashionista. And let's not forget about those mesmerizing tentacles that can twist and turn like nobody's business. As it reaches for the open water, you can almost hear this octopus saying, 'Ah, time for some me-time!' Whether it's catching up on the latest gossip with fellow sea creatures or simply enjoying the peacefulness of its surroundings, there's no doubt that this veined octopus knows how to embrace relaxation. So next time life gets stressful, take a cue from our eight-armed friend here and find your own version of an old clam shell hideaway. Just remember to leave your worries at the door – or should we say entrance? After all, even in nature's vast playgrounds like Bitung and Molucca Sea, everyone deserves their own slice of tranquility.
