those are green anemones that are sucked in. Just got back from camping had about 10 minutes to scroll through my pictures to upload. pretty much straight from camera. was a bad idea i guess.

I can't believe you got so close to one of these. These are dangerous; I mean, look at those green eyes, the way it stares. You were brave to get this shot. The shot itself I like, the way you captured the moisture on the surface, in what seems to be some pretty bright light, without any flares or overbright areas, which I think here would have detracted from the earthy tones.
It looks like starfish, but I don't know what those googlie eyes are. I like the color, the composition and the textures. Do add a photog. note to tell what this is.
