EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of a Colony of Common Mussels (Mytilus edulis) thriving on a striated rock formation, basking in the glory of low tide. The picturesque scene, taken by talented photographer Alex Hyde, has earned its well-deserved place as a highly commended entry in the Coast and Marine Category of the prestigious British Wildlife Photographer of the Year Awards. In this enchanting image, these charming mollusks showcase their incredible adaptability to survive and flourish amidst nature's ever-changing tides. As they cling tightly to their rocky abode, it's impossible not to be captivated by their tenacity and resilience. Cornwall's coastline provides an idyllic backdrop for this extraordinary display of marine life. With its rugged charm and breathtaking vistas, it serves as a testament to Mother Nature's artistic prowess. The mussels themselves seem like tiny artists at work - creating intricate patterns across the rocks with their presence. Their collective efforts form an arty shot that could rival any masterpiece found in galleries worldwide! So let us celebrate this stunning photograph that transports us into an underwater wonderland where common mussels reign supreme. It reminds us that even in seemingly ordinary creatures lie extraordinary stories waiting to be discovered. Bravo to Alex Hyde for capturing this magical moment!
