For most people living in the Pacific Northwest, seeing firsthand the otherworldly creatures who live underwater isn’t an option. We are generally stuck viewing mammals with bilateral symmetry, a few hundred dozens of invertebrates that we generally shrink from or try to kill, and an assortment of plants that we designate as ornamental, native, or invasive. However, when photographers point their cameras underwater, a whole host of other possibilities emerge. Not only can we see fish that we don’t normally see alive and in their normal habitat, but we can see creatures of all shapes and sizes, some that even look like they originated from a science fiction novel.
Is it possible to further feather the nest? What if I claimed that we can see not just these creatures, but get glimpses of their behavior…behavior that is every bit as strange as the shapes of their bodies? Maybe you just want to believe this. You’re in luck. The Pacific Northwest Underwater Photographic Society publishes such photographs in their e-Magazines.
