    Its good to see something from the water world . Nice composition. I liked the colours. The top right corner is a bit bright and distracts. Thanks for the information. Look forward to more.

    Vishal,
    Great to see underwater world. I like the colours. The brown and green makes good contrast. Which camera? Where did you shoot this? Thanks for sharing.

    Cheers,

    Nice, I love the colours and the composition. Look forward to more.
    Doesn't Sargassum float at the surface? I didn't know it can be found submerged... (?)

    rootlike Holdfast is used by Sargassum to hold some substrata, here a bottom of a rockpool. what we see floating is many branches as the algae of this genera can grow several meters. It floats to gain more surface area which aids in Photosynthesis.

    Nice colours. I like the composition and the focus on the orange algae on the right. I agree that the bright area in the top right corner is a bit distracting. Thanks for sharing.
