EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the vibrant beauty of the underwater world in Papua New Guinea. The focal point is a magnificent red sea fan, gracefully swaying with the ocean currents. Its intricate branches create an enchanting fan shape, providing a perfect habitat for a school of purple anthias fish. The contrasting colors of the sea fan and the anthias fish create a mesmerizing visual spectacle. The deep red hue of the sea fan stands out against the backdrop of blue waters, while the vivid purple coloration of the anthias adds another layer of vibrancy to this underwater scene. Located in Kimbe Bay, this thriving ecosystem showcases nature's incredible biodiversity. The coral reef teems with life as various marine organisms find their home among these sessile creatures. This photograph exemplifies how different species coexist harmoniously in their natural environment.
