Love Bites - A Tale of Passionate Cuttlefish Romance in the English Channel!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this underwater snapshot, we witness a love story unfold between two enchanting creatures of the deep. Meet our stars - a pair of Common cuttlefish! The female takes center stage, flaunting her beauty and grace as she swims gracefully through the crystal-clear waters of Babbacombe Bay. Behind her, her devoted male companion follows closely, his eyes filled with adoration. But take a closer look at our leading lady's skin – those circular scars tell an intriguing tale! These marks are souvenirs from their passionate mating rituals; evidence of the male's amorous advances using his suckers. It seems that love can sometimes leave its mark! Caught in this moment by photographer Alex Mustard for 2020VISION, this print captures not only their stunning appearance but also their fascinating behavior. As they dance together beneath the waves, these intelligent cephalopods remind us that romance knows no bounds – even in the depths of the ocean. So dive into this mesmerizing image and let yourself be swept away by nature's own Romeo and Juliet. Witness their tender connection and marvel at how love truly leaves its mark on all living beings - whether it be humans or charming cuttlefish like these!
