    This is a photograph of North Ponto State Beach in Carlsbad, a northern part of San Diego, California depicting a bioluminescent red tide that has been present in the coastal waters off San Diego. This particular species is called Lingulodinium Poleyedrum and emits a bright neon blue color when disturbed.
