Magnificent sea anemone
Magnificent sea anemone (Heteractis magnifica), close-up. This animal is usually found attached to objects such as coral boulders. Its body is composed of many blunt tentacles (green) attached to a column (purple). The tentacles are used to catch food. They possess stinging cells (nematocysts) that paralyse the anemones prey, which is then pushed into a digestive cavity inside the body. The magnificent anemone is found in tropical waters from French Polynesia to East Africa and from Australia to the Ryukyu Islands. Photographed off Komodo, Indonesia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the beauty and complexity of a magnificent sea anemone (Heteractis magnifica) in stunning detail. The vibrant colors and intricate structure of this marine creature are truly mesmerizing. Attached to coral boulders, its body consists of a column in striking shades of purple, adorned with numerous blunt tentacles in vivid green. These tentacles serve a crucial purpose for the sea anemone - they act as both weapons and feeding tools. Equipped with stinging cells called nematocysts, these remarkable creatures paralyze their prey before pushing it into a digestive cavity within their bodies. It is through this process that they obtain sustenance from the rich underwater ecosystem. The magnificent sea anemone thrives in tropical waters spanning from French Polynesia to East Africa, as well as Australia to the Ryukyu Islands. This particular photograph was taken off Komodo Island in Indonesia, showcasing the diverse marine life found within Indonesian waters. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the incredible diversity and wonder that lies beneath our oceans' surfaces. It serves as a testament to nature's ingenuity and resilience while highlighting the delicate balance required for these ecosystems to thrive. This print from Science Photo Library offers us a glimpse into the fascinating world of undersea life – where beauty meets functionality, creating an awe-inspiring spectacle worthy of admiration and protection.
