Winter days are a little brighter - both above and below water - with the glowing luminescence on display at the Vancouver Aquarium until January 22
Just as the winter sky lights up with holiday displays in its darkest days, so, too, are the depths of the sea illuminated with their own aquatic light displays of sorts.
Many of the magnificent creatures that live in the darkest underwater depths have developed ways to illuminate their paths – and their prey.
Luminescent creatures emit light either by bioluminescence (a chemical reaction creates light) or by fluorescence (they re-appropriate light from an external source in order to glow).
The Vancouver Aquarium‘s bioluminescent jellyfish and anemones, fluorescent scorpions, electric eels, and much more, help light up the darkest of our winter days in a beautiful display of aquatic light entitled Luminescence. Click through for a glowing (literally) preview
