A pair of sea snails appear deep red under ultraviolet light at low tide off Fidalgo Head near Anacortes, Washington. The glow is fluorescence, a type of photoluminescence, in which certain chemicals absorb light that is invisible to human eyes and emit some of it at a different wavelength that we can see. This scene was captured under black light at Sunset Beach in Washington Park.
