For some reason I was thinking this morning about the beautiful kelp forests that populate the coast of California - and of this exhibit at the California Science Center in Los Angeles. This post is from an old blog of mine, Loving The Wolf , and was originally posted on Friday August 6, 2010. Photograph © 2010 Alexander Chow-Stuart. It's really worth checking out the astonishing Ecosystems Experience at the LA Science Museum (actually it's called the California Science Center ) on Exposition Boulevard. There is a truly beautiful kelp tank with the shoal of fish I photographed here, as well as swell sharks, bat rays and other marine life that you would find in a kelp forest. The kelp has even started to reproduce in the tank - watch out for the tiny yellow triangles that show where baby kelp is growing. Really worth a visit. We took our young children and they loved it - as did I.
