Anemone Under Ultraviolet Light, Olympic Wilderness, Washington

The tentacles of anemones glow bright green when viewed under ultraviolet light at low tide at Second Beach in Olympic National Park, Washington. The glow is the result of phosphors that convert ultraviolet radiation, which is invisible to human eyes, into wavelengths that are visible. This scene was captured under black light.
