EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this portrait, taken by the talented photographer Alex Mustard, we are introduced to a charming and expressive creature from the depths of the North Atlantic Ocean. The Butterfish (Pholis gunnellus) takes center stage as it showcases its vibrant yellow color against a plain black background. With its nine eyes peering directly at us, this little fish seems to be conveying an array of emotions. Is it feeling lonely or simply enjoying some peaceful solitude? Its downturned mouth suggests a touch of sadness or perhaps even being upset about something fishy! Hailing from Gardur, southwest Iceland, this marine marvel adds a splash of color and personality to our underwater world. Known for their unique features and playful nature, these gunnels have earned themselves amusing nicknames like "Crinkly Dick" and "Saltwater Snake". As we admire this close-up shot, we can't help but wonder what adventures lie beneath those cold waters. From its intricate facial expressions to its graceful presence in the ocean's depths, this Butterfish reminds us that there is always more than meets the eye when it comes to Mother Nature's creations. So dive into your imagination with this print by Alex Mustard – let it transport you into an enchanting underwater realm filled with curious creatures and endless wonders!
