Dahlia Anemones are not a common find between the tides as they prefer deeper water. Photography includes animals at The Greeb, Marazion; Skilly near Newlyn, Newlyn Harbour, Spit Point, Par, Cornwall; Plymouth Hoe and The National Marine Aquarium in Plymouth, Devon.

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.
