© Aimee Stewart, Foxfires – please see my CC TERMS OF USE before considering using this image for any personal or commercial use. The Shell Maiden / / I come from the rain of sky and sea, caught / on the web of a shoreline daisy, braced low / and spinning in carnival delight with the / kiss of Pacifica’s mist. I come from the company of driftwood and seashells, bleached white as a wedding train waiting to be worn. The waves roll like a wedding march / announcing the union of land and deep blue dreams. / They bring a dowry of tangled vines and sand dollar spines, / and my heart says YES to this sailors treasure. I come from the flutter of dry seaweed, / no longer rich with Oceana’s brine, and yet / adorning the beach with seafoam flare, / like rice and petals clinging to the foot of a runaway bride. Bring me the delicacies of your wedding feast, snapped up in the yellow of a jealous lover’s bill, for I am treading softly here on honeymoon beds of ancient sand, / inscribing moon colored vows / on the framework / of whales. Aimee Stewart April 2nd, 2009 (Poem written at ArtFest 2009 – in Port Townsend, Washington while in the class instructed by Susan Wooldridge , author of PoemCrazy and Fool’s Gold ) Credits: / Model: Exclusive stock – MJRanum stock / Brushes / Brushes / All else, mine.

© Copyright 2006 Andrew Trevor-Jones Chambered nautilus, Nautilus pompilius, from the Coral Sea. Nikon D70, Nikkor 18-70mm, Ikelite housing, dome port, DS50 and DS125 strobes. ISO200, 1/160s, f/16 @ 34mm Chambered nautilus have hardly changed since the time of the dinosaurs. At one time, nautilus and related cephalopods were the dominant marine predators. Nautilus are now mostly scavengers. During the day they spend their time in deep water (500-600 metres) at the base of tropical reefs. At night they move into shallower water (200-300 metres) to scavenge for food, usually the bodies of dead animals that have fallen down the reef walls. The pictured animal was captured by Underesea Explorer as part of their Nautilus Research . They trap nautilus at a site called Admiralty Anchor on the western side of Osprey Reef in the Coral Sea. The traps, baited with chicken pieces, are dropped down the reef wall to a depth of 200-300 metres (the lines are 300 metres long) and leave the traps overnight. The traps are raised the next morning and any captured nautilus are transferred to holding tanks. The tanks are chilled with plastic containers filled with ice to keep the water temperature closer to what they would experience in deep water. The researcher on board the boat measures, logs and engraves each animal and they are released that night back at the same site. The trapping and handling does not appear to have any adverse effect on the animals and Undersea frequently recapture tagged animals. The research is important in understanding the populations at Osprey Reef so they can be protected from shell collectors.

If you have not had the opportunity to spend any time several leagues under the ocean lately, you may not have realized just how stylish undersea travel has become. Witness Emma in her clever Nautilus shell craft, gently conveyed along the currents of the briny deep by her pet miniature whale, Fathom. With a her parasol to protect her from falling krill and a sonar horn in the event of traffic jam, Emma loves cruising the colorful coral reefs and continental shelves on Sunday afternoon. With plenty of room below for hitchhikers and stowaways and a turbo propeller for passing power, the Nautilus is the seacraft of choice for the hip underwater set, to be sure! Great as a companion piece to Marcella and her Conch Carriage. This original artwork and story are copyright Ramona Szczerba 2009.

Pair of cuttlefish. Taken on a night dive at Port Stephens, NSW, Australia. Cuttlefish change colour/pattern to communicate, camoflauge themselves and intimidate predators. These two are using two different patterns.

“FOUND THIS WONDERFUL INFO HERE :.. LINK / _this is a fractal as is, no further editing _THE HISTORIC SHIP NAUTILUS ( US NAVY SUBMARINE MUSEUM!) Visit the Submarine Force Museum and peer into the lives of the men who sail the ocean depths in their “sharks of steel.” Trace the development of the “silent service” from Bushnell’s Turtle, used in the Revolutionary War, to the modern Virginia and Ohio class submarines. Look through one of three operating periscopes and perhaps you’ll see one of the Navy’s newest submarines going by on the Thames River. Relax in one of our theaters and enjoy films of submarines past and present. Even learn how a submarine operates on an interactive computer display. Aboard NAUTILUS, experience first-hand the thrill of being a submariner as you walk the decks that made Naval history: the world’s first nuclear powered vessel, first ship to go to the North Pole, and first submarine to journey “20,000 Leagues under the sea.” Explore the spaces where the crew of this amazing ship worked, ate, slept, and entertained themselves on their long voyages far beneath the ocean’s waves. The Submarine Force Museum, located on the Thames River in Groton, Connecticut, maintains the world’s finest collection of submarine artifacts. It is the only submarine museum operated by the United States Navy, and as such is the primary repository for artifacts, documents and photographs relating to U.S. Submarine Force history.
