When seen from below by a predator, the animal's light helps to match its brightness and colour to the sea surface above. Counter-illumination is a method of active camouflage seen in marine animals such as firefly squid and midshipman fish, and in military prototypes, producing light to match their backgrounds. Marine animals of the mesopelagic (mid-water) zone tend to appear dark against the bright water surface when seen from below.
A landscape is usually made up of a hardscape and a softscape which means the trees, plants and grass. The use of boulders, tiles, sculptures, walkways or bird baths can be used to create a beautiful sitting area, a place for entertaining guests, or an outdoor cooking space.
The hardscape material that you choose would depend on your surroundings...the siding on your house and any other nearby hardscape. Try to have the paving material that you add on blend with these other materials. Depending on how large you want you patio to be, you can add on one row of pavers or multiple rows.
