What do you see when you look at this photo? And no, it’s not me in the morning🙄😒 The image appears to show an enormous, scary face suddenly emerging from the ocean. But what you're actually looking at is a stargazer fish that has buried itself in the sandy floor of the Mediterranean. The photo was taken by Pietro Formis from Italy and is among several to be highly commended in this year's Wildlife Photographer of the Year. Atlantic Stargazer fish, whose Latin name is Uranoscopus scaber, are so called because their eyes stick upwards. They are also predators, and in order to catch their prey they hide under sand with only their eyes and mouth visible - that's what you can see in Mr Formis' photo. "To me, it looks like a voodoo mask or a human face and those are species that I like most, the species that have a human-like face, with big eyes and big mouth. It's a beautiful animal," Mr Formis said. For more incredible wildlife photography like this, check out the @BBC News article below: https://lnkd.in/eYRNwske #sustainability #retail #supplychain
It’s like looking in a mirror for me Richard Davies

The ocean holds some fascinating secrets.
That stargazer fish is a master of camouflage.
Nature has a way of creating incredible optical illusions.
Pietro Formis captured a remarkable moment in nature.
