A pair of snorkellers have captured stunning images of a rare sea salp colony off the coast of West Cornwall.

Salps are a type of floating sea squirt that often form chains, resembling structures that look like lights in the water.

Marine photographer Heather Hamilton and her dad David Hamilton were snorkelling near Porthcurno when they spotted thousands of the jellyfish-like creatures drifting through the water.
