sealord > This image was taken with a Canon S80 digital camera in an underwater housing. I placed the camera on the bottom of a tide-pool in Belle Greve Bay and pointed the lens skywards to photograph the canopy of algae covering the surface of the water. This brown algae is Sargassum muticum, which is known as 'japweed' locally because it most likely arrived from Japan via France where it was introduced with a shipment of oysters.
