Images taken of species found under a rock in a middleshore rockpool at Chimney Rocks, Penzance, Cornwall, 08.04.11 and 05.04.12; also at Chimney Rocks, Penzance, 11.01.13. Species also found at Batten Bay, Plymouth, Devon and Hannafore Point, Cornwall.

The main objective of this website is in furthering environmental awareness and education through the medium of photography. To increase awareness and access to the wildlife of the region and help
people find and identify it. Sometimes the difference between species is obvious but many species can only be determined by observing microscopic characteristics that are specific to any one species.
