In more recent years, California's coastal waters have gradually gotten clearer. Some days are better than others. This day in Laguna Beach it was like a swimming pool. There is something so calming about images like this. Thanks for viewing and for more follow on FB, IG and LBEARD.com **UPDATE** Since I took this photo there has been a starfish epidemic. The virus started in Canada and moved south until it reach Southern Califorina. I took this shot in January with lots starfish. Now there are no starfish in most areas. Once a starfish contracts the virus, it dies in 24 hours. Experts do not know what has cause this virus. This is now a very special shot for me. Thanks for supporting a clean ocean.

CAphotos Platinum
 
CAphotos November 08, 2019
I agree with the folks that are saying this is not a PET and why was it in a contest for PETS? Yes, lovely photo. But when people enter...and WIN in a contest where the subject was defined as PET...this photo is totally inappropriate as are tigers and sharks and other non pet type animals. I have told Viewbug that I will not participate in any more contests just for this reason. Enjoy your Starfish photo Larry. It is quite nice - but not fair to just enter it into any old contest you want when others try to go by the rules.
