Coastal Cosmos
I've always found a strange connection between looking into the deep ocean and looking up at the night sky. There's so much we don't know about either, and that mystery is captivating. When I came across this tide pool on the Monterey coast, that feeling was immediate. This little world, full of sea anemones and colorful algae, felt like its own galaxy. Each anemone was like a star or a nebula, a complex system unto itself. It’s humbling to think about these intricate lives unfolding in a space most people walk right past. It reminds me that there are entire universes to discover, both out there in the cosmos and right here at our feet, if we just take a moment to look.
