EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Terry Moore, titled "Close-up view of basket stars feeding at night" takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the depths of the Caribbean Sea. The image showcases the incredible beauty and abundance of sea life found in Bonaire, Caribbean Netherlands. In this close-up shot, we are treated to an intimate glimpse of ophiothrix suesonii, commonly known as basket stars, as they engage in their nightly feeding ritual. These echinoderms gracefully extend their intricate arms adorned with delicate branches to capture prey drifting through the water. The composition is bathed in a mysterious darkness that enhances the ethereal nature of these creatures. Against a backdrop of vibrant coral and surrounded by other marine species, this large group of animals creates a stunning display of biodiversity. Moore's expert photography skills allow us to appreciate every detail: from the starfish-like bodies to the fine textures and patterns adorning each arm. The color image brings out subtle hues and highlights that might otherwise go unnoticed. This photograph serves as a reminder not only of nature's wonders but also our responsibility to protect it. It invites viewers to delve into underwater realms rarely seen by human eyes and sparks curiosity about marine biology and science. Without any human presence disturbing its tranquility, this snapshot encapsulates both serenity and dynamism within one frame – showcasing just how extraordinary our planet truly is.
