Amidst the dynamic seascape of Jamaica's northeastern waters, the "Crown of Thorns" emerges as a living mosaic, a sea urchin whose striking form plays a crucial role in maintaining marine health. Nestled fifty feet below the gentle swells, where coral kingdoms thrive and fish dart like living jewels, Lee Ann pointed my lens towards this remarkable echinoderm. Its spines, a vibrant defense against predators, also hint at its role as an algae grazer, preventing coral suffocation and promoting ecological balance. Captured in this image, the sea urchin exemplifies nature's intricate connections, its essence now ready to bestow a room with the elegance and mystery of the deep.
Ocean Conservation Tip: Participate in local beach cleanups and reduce plastic use to prevent ocean pollution, safeguarding the habitat of creatures like the sea urchin and ensuring the health of coral reefs.
