EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a fish with flair! Meet the Flying Gurnard, the underwater acrobat of Papua New Guinea. With its vibrant colors and unique wing-like fins, this little daredevil is ready to take flight in the deep blue sea. Caught on camera by renowned photographers Ron & Valerie Taylor, this incredible shot captures the beauty and grace of this Australasian gem from an aerial perspective. From above, you can truly appreciate the intricate patterns and striking hues that adorn its scales. Don't be fooled by its name though - despite being called a gurnard, this fish doesn't actually fly through the air like a bird. Instead, it uses its large pectoral fins to glide gracefully just above the ocean floor. It's like watching a ballet performance unfold beneath the waves! Found exclusively in these pristine waters off Papua New Guinea's coastlines, this single Flying Gurnard stands out as a true showstopper among marine life enthusiasts. Its presence adds an extra touch of magic to an already enchanting underwater world. So dive into adventure with VT-8257! Whether you're exploring Oceania or simply daydreaming about aquatic wonders from your living room wall, let this print transport you to another realm where fishes rule and imagination knows no bounds.
