Underwater fluorescent photographs by Alex Mustard - 19 Aug 2011
Manadatory Credit: Photo by Alex Mustard/Solent News / Rex Features (1448620c)
Underwater Electric Light Show
These underwater corals look stunning as they emit a fluorescent glow of green, orange and purple.
The colours radiate from the coral in the same way a UV light bounces off bright clothing in a nightclub.
British photographer Alex Mustard, 36, snapped the glowing corals, worms, anemone and crabs while diving in the Red Sea and the Caribbean.
He took the pictures at night and used a standard camera fitted with a blue flash, which triggers the fluorescent reaction.
The exact reason why the corals fluoresce is a mystery but it is thought the fluorescent pigment acts like a sun screen.
Alex, from Southampton, Hants, said: "The Red Sea and the Caribbean both have healthy and rich coral reefs.
"For these types of images you want to photograph where there are lots of species of corals as some glow with fluorescence and some do not.
"What is amazing is that you don't know what you will get until you see the pictures.
"Some corals glow strongly, while others do not.
"It is only when you take the picture and the blue flashes go off that you know if the coral is a performer.
"The pictures are taken with a normal camera and the colours are those that the camera recorded. They are not adjusted on a computer.
"I fitted filters to my flashes so they produce only deep blue light.
"This excites the fluorescence response in the corals, which then give out the greens, oranges and yellows you see in the images.
"The effect is the same as when bright colours in your clothes show up under the UV light in a disco or nightclub."
He added: "Corals are important creatures, which build the reefs that support whole ecosystems.
"They are under threat from rising sea temperatures and increasingly acidic seas.
"But they are not always the most e...

FEATURE - Weil er nicht menschlich ist wurde die FB Seite von Pinguin Dippy gesperrt

Dippy the penguin in one of the photos on his Facebook page - preparing to travel by hovercraft - before it was closed down
Facebook shuts down Dippy the penguin's page because 'he is not human', Isle of Wight, Britain - Feb 2011
Facebook has upset thousands of children by shutting down the profile of a wildlife park's penguin without warning - for not being human. 'Dippy' has been the star attraction at Seaview Wildlife Encounter near Ryde on the Isle of Wight since 1997 and was the first penguin to own a Facebook page. Youngsters make regular visits to feed him fish - and nearly 3,000 fans from across the globe have been following his antics on Facebook for the past two years. Hundreds of photos posted included Dippy visiting a local ice rink, travelling to the island by hovercraft and wearing cute costumes including an England football shirt and Santa outfit. He has also been snapped meeting celebrities including Dancing On Ice stars Kyran Bracken and Daniel Whiston. Wildlife park's bosses used his profile as a light-hearted educational tool to inform children about conservation issues and Dippy had around 3,000 Facebook friends.

Swimmers in lake turn fluorescent blue due to bioluminescence, Gippsland Lakes, Victoria, Australia - 19 Jan 2011
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Phil Hart/Solent News / Rex Features ( 1277650f )
Out Of The Blue
These swimmers look like they have been playing with radioactive paint as they glow a fluorescent shade of blue.
Photographer Phil Hart, 34, snapped the bizarre sight as his friends emerged from a lake in the dark of night.
The light is created by a chemical reaction called "bioluminescence", which happens when a naturally occurring micro-organism in the water is disturbed.
Phil put his camera on a very slow shutter speed and threw sand and stones into the water to cause the reaction and capture as much of the blue haze as possible.
The resulting images are particularly stunning due to the high concentration of the micro-organism 'Noctiluca Scintillans' at that time in the Gippsland Lakes in Victoria, Australia.
Phil said: "To be there watching this bioluminescence is spellbinding and to see it like this is very rare.
"I am a program director with an organisation that has been running canoeing camps on the Gippsland Lakes for fifty years.
"Nobody can remember a time when the bioluminescence was as bright as it was on this occasion.
"The sequence of bushfires and floods which brought such high levels of nutrients into the lakes for these organisms to feed on may not happen again in my lifetime.
"I feel very fortunate to have been there to see it and to have had my camera gear there to record it."
Phil, from Melbourne, Australia, added: "While the luminescence was obvious to the eye, the bright blue colour is only apparent in photos with the camera.
"When the first photo I took appeared on screen I could hardly believe it - the people in the water looked freakish.
"It was like we were playing with radioactive paint.
"We stayed up late on several nights and never got tired of playing in the water and taking photos."
