Disco Doris 🪩 #seaslug crawling amongst the rainbow wrack #seaweed Before this spring I’d never found a disco Doris nudibranch, now I’ve seen them on >10 occasions. This slug was happily crawling over the seaweed in a shallow #rockpool. #nudibranchs #marinelife #cornwallcoast #springwatch

New film on the #underwater wildlife of #Cornwall that is around right now. From sharks to huge spider crabs. Link below #marinelife #marinebiology #britishwildlife youtu.be/ifh9m_M9Kdk?...

A few recent shots from the #kelpforest - including the little catsharks we get locally and the large spiny starfish, and one of the biggest spider crabs I’ve ever seen. #cornwallcoast #marinelife #uknature

Spring in Cornwall - underwater We recently had some stunning conditions locally here in #Cornwall, with clear water, calm seas, and stunning clear visibility. The underwater seascapes, #kelpforests, and seaweed gardens looking amazing! #marinelife #seaweed

Sharks, spider crabs, starfish, & sunshine underwater I’ve been documenting spring in Cornwall’s kelp forests Despite unsettled weather, the visibility at times has been stunning, with lots of wildlife. Full film out now: youtu.be/kEsTVksME_4?... #MarineBiology #UKWildlife #Cornwall #marinelife

Spring in the #kelp forests of #cornwall - new film out now! Here’s a short preview but the full film is available on my YouTube channel #marinebiology #ukwildlife #cornwallcoast

Details - this is a rainbow #seaslug up close. They are incredibly colourful to the naked eye but seen magnified the colours are unreal! #cornwallcoast #marinebiology #nudibranchs #ukwildlife

One of my favourite creatures to find locally - a cluster of blue-rayed limpets on kelp Taken with an OM1 and OM 90mm macro lens. #cornwallwildlife #uknature #marinebiology #seaweed #macrophotography

I updated the blog post on my website about the local #seaslugs we get in #Cornwall and recent new arrivals #marinebiology #uknature www.wildlifevision.com/blog/sea-slugs

Resharing this as Bluesky seem to be down most of yesterday… Brand new film all about the incredible and amazingly colourful #seaslugs found locally in Cornwall out now #marinebiology #cornwallcoast #marinewildlife youtu.be/M7xo6rLWtho?...

I just released a 10-minute film diving into the biology and beauty of these "ocean jewels” Watch the full film here: youtu.be/M7xo6rLWtho?... 📽️

There are over 100 species of #seaslug around the UK, many incredibly beautiful, some common, some rare or new arrivals 🌈🌊 I’ve spent a decade documenting the underwater world of #Cornwall and finding rare or new species has been a highlight #MarineBiology #marinewildlife #nudibranchs

One of the many Polycera #seaslugs that have been around lately. This one crawling around on some of the bright red harpoon seaweed. #cornwallcoast #ukwildlife #marinebiology

Spring sea slugs - so many around at the moment. The once rare rainbow #seaslugs are becoming quite common, more Polycera around than I’ve seen before, my second ever disco Doris. Here’s some recent clips - a teaser before something bigger out next week… #cornwallcoast #seaslugs #underwatermacro

New blog post on the changing underwater seasons in #Cornwall and the #wildlife at different times of year #marinebiology #marinelife www.wildlifevision.com/blog/seasons

New film all about the #underwater seasons and wildlife in #Cornwall just out! youtu.be/Kj0KC9V87uw?... It’s taken a lot of work (over a year of filming), so super grateful for any views or engagement #marinebiology #wildlife

If you’re potentially interested in using a #smartphone for underwater photography or filming, here’s an intro guide youtu.be/Do8lPNBlUzE?... #underwaterphotography #underwaterfilming #diving #snorkelling

Next YouTube film is now live - have a watch if you want to see lots of marine #wildlife of #cornwall and underwater scenery #marinebiology #underwater #diving youtu.be/eIHkWLV-ZXY?...

Very excited to team up with Dive UK for underwater photography workshops in #Cornwall this summer! Booking now open diveuk.uk/pages/underw... #underwaterphotography #marinebiology #scubadiving

New video on winter rock pool marine #wildlife and #underwater photography I’ve been a bit quiet on here lately, partly focussing on making a series of films about the wildlife here and starting a YouTube channel. First full film out now: #marinebiology #cornwall youtu.be/DckPAAyWrNU?...

The rare & beautiful violet sea snail - a predator of Portuguese Man O’War & by-the-wind sailors. It lives its whole life at the surface of the open ocean, using a bubble raft to stay afloat. It’s normally more common in warmer waters but occasionally seen here #marinebiology #marinelife #oceanlife

A mauve stinger #jellyfish in front of an avenue of yellow #seaweed. This from last autumn when we had huge blooms of these jellyfish - by contrast I’ve not seen a single one this year. #CornishWildlife #MarineLife #UnderwaterPhotography

Very fortunate to find another rainbow #seaslug the other day. This was the smallest I’ve seen - about the size of a grain of rice (next to my fingertip for scale). #cornwallwildlife #nudibranchs #ukunderwater #marinelife #uwphotography

Sea fog around the #Cornwall coast this morning at sunrise. Another stunning start to the day! #shotoniphone #cornishcoast #ukcoast

Cuttlefish changing colour over the sand - this is the same #cuttlefish but the sequence of photos shows how it can change its colour and texture for both camouflage and communication. #marinelife #underwaterphotography #marinebiology

Recent beautiful autumn weather & spring low tides makes for a great chance to find wonderful #rockpool creatures - like these blue-rayed limpets, tiny cushions star (both less than 1 cm in size) and star ascidians. #marinelife #underwaterphotography #shotoniphone #ukunderwater #britishwildlife

Blue-rayed limpets just beneath the surface. They often gather in groups this time of year on the lower kelp to weather autumn storms. #shotoniphone #uknature #underwaterphoto #marinelife #marinebiology

Back in the water in #cornwall after quite a long time out and lovely to see some #cuttlefish again. Very autumnal now and pretty rocky underwater! #marinelife #underwaterphotography #britishwildlife

About a year ago we had huge blooms of these beautiful (but painful) mauve stinger #jellyfish around the #Cornwall coast. On one day strong onshore winds washed them into the lower #rockpools. #marinelife #ukunderwater #underwaterphotography #marinebiology

Two tiny #seaslugs from Anilao in the Philippines: Favorinus tsuruganus, which feeds on the eggs of other sea slugs, and a Shaun the sheep nudibranch. Amazing how tiny these creatures are, barely visible to a naked eye. #marinelife #nudibranchs #underwatermacro #underwaterphotographer #marinebiology

Have you ever seen an #octopus clean and then use the toilet? This individual was outside its den so I set a #gopro to record its behaviour. From Patmos, #Greece. Plenty more film and photos to follow if the trip. #marinebiology #marinelife #underwaterfilming #wildlife

Recently back from a holiday in #Greece, Patmos Island with a bunch of videos and photos from underwater. One of the highlights was the wonderful #octopus. #shotoniphone #marinelife #underwaterphotography

A beautiful Polycera #seaslug in the shallow waters in a lower #rockpool in #cornwall. Love seeing these creatures. #underwaterphotography #ukunderwater #marinelife #nudibranch

Interested in using your smartphone for #underwater film and photography? I wrote a blog about it and the DiveVolk housing and lenses www.wildlifevision.com/blog/divevol... #iphonephotography #shotoniphone #divevolk #underwaterphotography #uwphotography

Some compass #jellyfish from the last week or so in #cornwall. They’ve come and gone a lot this year and conditions in the water have been very up and down again, with huge jumps in water temperature. #marinebiology #cornwallunderwater #underwaterphotography #marinelife

Some #macro shots of little crabs in the #rockpools - a baby edible crab and common hermit crab. Taken on an iPhone with a DiveVolk housing and macro lens. #underwateruk #marinelife #underwaterphotography

I wrote this article for Reflections to accompany some of my images on the changes happening to the wildlife around the Cornish coast including some of the new species we’re seeing here #marinebiology #marinelife #ukunderwater #britishnature #cornwallcoast www.reflections.site/stories/how-...

A tiny Facelina auriculata #seaslug from a little earlier this year in a #rockpool. One of the most beautiful species we get here. #marinelife #underwaterphotography #ukunderwater #ukwildlife

Some more #underwater scenery from the spring here in #cornwall

Very happy to have seen my first crystal jelly of the year - they were once rare to see in the uk but are now common around #Cornwall in the summer. #marinelife #jellyfish #ukwildlife #underwaterphotography #marinebiology

Took a bit longer this year but finally saw my first #jellyfish - a stunning blue jelly #cornwallcoast #marinelife #ukunderwater #underwaterphoto

The #seaweed is looking beautiful right now around the #cornwall coast. This is rainbow wrack, which is a bright iridescent blue-green when it catches the light #underwaterphotography #ukunderwater #marinelife #marinebiology
