Seaweed and two chitons in a tide pool.

This image shows a vibrant tide pool containing two chitons—oval-shaped, segmented marine mollusks with ridged, dark shells—blending into the rocky environment. Surrounding them is a diverse array of seaweed and encrusting algae, with purples, greens, and browns adding to the rich, natural color palette.
