| Sunlight streams through giant kelp forest. Giant kelp, the fastest growing plant on Earth, reaches from the rocky reef to the ocean's surface like a submarine forest. Professional stock photos of Underwater Landscape. Image ID: 33433 Species: Giant Kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: Catalina Island, California, USA | Garibaldi and golden gorgonian, with a underwater forest of giant kelp rising in the background, underwater. Pictures of Underwater Landscape. Image ID: 23432 Species: California golden gorgonian, Muricea californica, Hypsypops rubicundus Location: Catalina Island, California, USA | Bryozoan grows on a red gorgonian on rocky reef, below kelp forest, underwater. The red gorgonian is a filter-feeding temperate colonial species that lives on the rocky bottom at depths between 50 to 200 feet deep. Gorgonians are oriented at right angles to prevailing water currents to capture plankton drifting by. Underwater Landscape Photo.

| Kelp fronds and pneumatocysts. Pneumatocysts, gas-filled bladders, float the kelp plant off the ocean bottom toward the surface and sunlight, where the leaf-like blades and stipes of the kelp plant grow fastest. Giant kelp can grow up to 2' in a single day given optimal conditions. Epic submarine forests of kelp grow throughout California's Southern Channel Islands. Underwater Landscape Image. Image ID: 25396 Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: San Clemente Island, California, USA | The Kelp Forest offshore of La Jolla, California. A kelp forest. Giant kelp grows rapidly, up to 2' per day, from the rocky reef on the ocean bottom to which it is anchored, toward the ocean surface where it spreads to form a thick canopy. Myriad species of fishes, mammals and invertebrates form a rich community in the kelp forest. Lush forests of kelp are found throughout California's Southern Channel Islands Professional stock photos of Underwater Landscape. Image ID: 30986 Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera | Giant kelp frond showing pneumatocysts. Small gas bladders -- pneumatocysts -- connect the kelp's stipes ("stems") to its blades ("leaves"). These bladders help elevate the kelp plant from the bottom, towards sunlight and the water's surface. Pictures of Underwater Landscape.
