Magic Mirror on the ocean floor, who is the cutest one of all?<\/p>\n
Whether admiring its cuteness, looking for a mate or just checking that nothing is out of place before a big date, this Magic Mirror seems most welcome.<\/p>\n
It’s usually not nice to see junk thrown into the ocean. Plastic bags, damaged fishing gear and discarded packaging are a real threat to marine life as well as being a blight on and below the water.<\/p>\n
Some junk however is quite welcome. Building rubble turned into reefy structures, scuttled ships into mini ecosystems, glass bottles into octopus homes with a view. Even mirrors seem to be put to good use!!<\/p>\n
So who is the cutest one of all? Under the sea this Southern Pygmy Leatherjacket (Brachaluteres jacksonianus<\/em>) is a fair contender.<\/p>\n Photo: Robert Rath, ‘Magic Mirror’, 1\/200s f\/13 ISO320 50mm<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Magic Mirror on the ocean floor, who is the cutest one of all?
