EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Tyrone Siu, a talented performer practices her mermaid swim in an aquarium alongside a magnificent shark. The image was taken on December 16,2016, in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China after the performer graduated from a mermaid workshop. The picture showcases the instinctual connection between humans and the underwater world as the unrecognizable performer gracefully glides through the water with her blue tail glistening. The creative use of body parts and reflection adds an artistic touch to this mesmerizing moment. The juxtaposition of the elegant mermaid and the wild animal creates a sense of awe and danger. As waves crash against them, both creatures seem at home in their watery environment. This unique event allows people to witness nature's beauty up close while highlighting Chinese culture. The silhouette of the shark adds an element of mystery as it swims alongside its human counterpart. Despite its dangerous reputation, there is harmony between these two beings sharing this aquatic space. This extraordinary photograph captures not only a performance but also reflects our deep connection with nature and our desire to explore its depths. It serves as a reminder that even within controlled environments like aquariums, wildlife can still evoke wonder and fascination among those who encounter it.
