Cuttlefish eyes are so wild. Their strange W-shaped pupil actually gives them a very unique advantage. But it wasnāt until 2012 that scientists finally unraveled the mystery behind this remarkable feature. The W shape effectively reduces glare from the bright sunlit surface above, enabling them to perceive sharper contrasts and detect both predators and prey in the dimmer waters surrounding them.
Whatās even more intriguing is that these masters of hypnotic color changes are actually completely colorblind! Let me know in the comments if you want to learn how that works, and Iāll share it in my next post! Extra points if you can guess what type of cuttlefish this is! š¤

Colorful Colorado living up to its name š
Just got back from an awesome little adventure in the mountains of western Colorado chasing the fall colors. If you havenāt been, Iād def recommend adding it to your bucket list! The San Juan mountains are home to incredible fall colors, jagged snow capped peaks, ghost towns, and some wild history.

Wandering the Badlands of South Dakotaā¦
Walking along the ridge lines of the Badlands offers an inspiring view of the sheer scale of this otherworldly landscape. After enduring a week of intense 50mph winds and severe storms that issued warnings for baseball-sized hail and tornadoes in the region, the sky finally opened. Under a clear night sky, thousands of stars are visible, and even the faint dust lanes carving through the Milky Way can be seen thanks to the parkās designation as an International Dark Sky Park. This particular night, we even witnessed waves of green air glowing rippling across the sky. It made every minute of waiting out the storm worth it.

Counting down the days until I get to spend some more time with these incredible creatures next month! Did you know Thresher sharks can whip their long tail fin at speeds upwards of 30mph to stun prey? Their tail fin can actually make up half of their entire body length!

Where stars are bornā¦šØāšš This cosmic nursery is so vast that it would take our fastest interstellar spacecraft 1.8 million years to travel from one side to the other. The North America Nebula (C20) is a radiant star-forming region that glows with the fiery hue of ionized hydrogen fueled by a hidden star that is over 100,000 times brighter than our sun.
Can you see why itās named the North America Nebula? š¤

In a remote marine lake, this extraordinary species of jellyfish embarks on a daily journey, chasing the sun. This remarkable quest holds an extraordinary story. Each jellyfish is a living solar-powered marvel, housing a vibrant community of algae within. These tiny algae companions perform a daily photosynthesis spectacle, providing nourishment to their jellyfish hosts through the power of sunlight. Itās a beautiful display of natureās collaboration, where the sun, jellyfish, and algae create a harmonious symphony of life.

Gazing up at the night sky is an incredibly humbling experience. Try to imagine, just for a moment, that some of the twinkling starlight you see above has traveled a staggering 2.5 million years just to reach your eyes. How mind-bending is that?

Throwback to one of my all time favorite sea turtle shots. Taken while floating in the ocean 20+ miles off the coast of Baja California Sur, Mexico.

One of those magical nights on the coast where it all just comes together.
After days of dark clouds and dense fog, I decided to take one last chance on this spot before starting the long journey back to the desert. As I walked down to the beach the clouds began to break apart letting the Milky Way shine through as if the ocean was giving me one last parting gift.

One of my favorite macro creatures, the aptly named Candy Crab. These flamboyant tiny spider crabs (roughly 1/2 inch or 1.5cm) live exclusively in Dendronephthya Soft corals and will actually wear pieces of the coral as a disguise to help them blend in. Those little yellow and pink hats itās wearing are actually live coral. Fun fact, their scientific name (Hoplophrys) translates to āarmored eyebrowā š

Since moving to the American Southwest Iāve become obsessed with these high desert juniper trees. I found this one growing on the edge of a 1000 foot tall cliff face in a remote area of Utah. Whatās wild is that these trees can live up to 1200 years old and survive living in some of the harshest environments while growing only a few inches per year. But what you canāt see is even wilder⦠two thirds of their mass is actually below the surface with roots that can spread over 100 feet wide and 30 feet deep below this small tree. Swipe to see the full uncropped image as itās meant to be.
Captured on the Sony Alpha 1 II.
