EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a young gibbous starlet, the Asterina gibbosa starfish, in all its intricate glory. The image provides a dorsal view of this fascinating creature, revealing two distinct types of protuberances that adorn its outline. The first type consists of short jagged spines that add texture and character to the starfish's appearance. The second type is comprised of long rounded tube feet, also known as podia, which serve various functions for the starlet. In this particular view, we can observe a blurred central dark mass at the center of the starfish. This dark mass represents the digestive sacs or pyloric caecae responsible for processing food and extracting nutrients. Interestingly, while this dorsal perspective offers insight into these internal structures, it conceals the mouth located on the underside of the starfish. The photograph was taken using a light microscope with a magnification level of x36 when printed at 10 centimeters across. Its high resolution allows us to appreciate every detail and intricacy present in this marine creature's anatomy. As we delve into nature's wonders through this stunning image capture by Science Photo Library, we are reminded once again of the incredible diversity found within our wild world – from single-celled organisms to complex beings like these young gibbous starlets.
