I love this photo. The sunburst anemone and the algae around it, is part way out of the water which gives it the interesting effect.

"Blue Bliss" for #ThrowbackThursday — these are the very popular tide pools of La Jolla, photographed at dusk in June 2013.
(my own monthly #Throwback to 10 years ago that I do on the 15th of every month coincides with a Thursday, how convenient!😄)
A few more words, and some background about the photo, are in my blog post: https://www.alex-kunz.com/june-2013-throwback/

A short day to finish on day 7 in the #KingRange on the #LostCoastTrail and more. Getting in a bit more #tidepooling and wandering the #dunes.

Here’s a short video of a harbor seal and her pup that decided to join the #tidepooling crowd on Pillar Point Reef.
#Tidepooling yesterday at Pillar Point Reef. Busy day with lots of people from all over the Bay Area. Had to educate some people who didn’t realize they were harvesting mussels and urchins in the marine protected area because they didn’t see the invisible line. Hadn’t been out there myself but the number of urchins, mussels and sea stars showed that protected areas work.
Our @leapingwoman is waving good-bye after a fun time. #PillarPoint #HalfMoonBay #tidepooling

We saw several gumboot chitons. This guy eventually stretched out to 14 inches as it moved along. #tidepooling #PillarPoint #HalfMoonBay

A great day for our shift as tidepool stewards at Pillar Point Reef. #HalfMoonBay #tidepooling

Two Anthopleura elegantissima anemones with a sneaky crab hidden between them.

Some scenic views of the reef and the point itself. Wonderful day.

Extreme low tide brought me excellent beachy things: urchin test, gumboot chiton, abalone shell, nudibranchs. #tidepooling #ocean #kingtides #invertebrates

Saw a bunch of ochre sea stars on our local rocks. #tidepooling #seastars #nature

Great textures and patterns at the beach during today’s minus tide. #tidepooling #nature
