#Macrophotography contest : Spirobranch...!

[marc-allaria]

This tiny "Christmas tree" is in fact an underwater animal. More exactly, it is the mouth (which also plays the role of anus ...) of a submarine worm of the spirobranch family. With these brass, he can capture the particles within his reach, and directs them into his mouth. Again from Papua New Guinea.	Cet "arbre de noël" minuscule est en fait un animal sous-marin. Plus exactement, il s'agit de la bouche (qui joue aussi le rôle d'anus...) d'un ver sous-marin de la famille des spirobranches. Grâce à ces voiles, il capture les particules à sa portée, et les dirige vers sa bouche. Photography une nouvelle fois de Papouasie.

Incredible shot. I love it.

[marc-allaria]

Thank you @onephoto. The more difficult is to approach it. If you are too fast, it can enter inside his home.

It's unfortunate to have an anus for a mouth... lol. But it's a beautiful picture. Ça doit être super difficile to prendre use photo en macro sous l'eau.

[marc-allaria]

Oui en effet c'est de la malchance !! La difficulté de cette prise de vue et l'approche. Car il peut entrer en un millième de seconde dans son trou et n'en ressortir que 5 minutes plus tard, ce qui est une éternité en plongée.

Belle photo et originale comme arbre de noel😜

[marc-allaria]

Un arbre de Noël de 2-3 cm de haut !

Beautiful image, love the detail in the worm.

[marc-allaria]

Yes, it is a strange creature, but really adapted to his biotope.
