EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Mathieu Meur showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the underwater world in North Sulawesi, Indonesia. In this image, we are transported to the Lembeh Strait, where a striking symbiotic relationship between two unique creatures unfolds before our eyes. At first glance, we are drawn to the vibrant colors and intricate details of the striated goby and blind shrimp. The goby, known as Amblyeleotris yanoi, stands tall with its slender body while showcasing its distinctive stripes. Meanwhile, Alpheus randalli - the blind shrimp - gracefully perches on a nearby coral branch. The composition perfectly captures their intimate connection as they coexist harmoniously on the ocean floor. This symbiotic partnership is truly remarkable; while the goby provides protection for both itself and its companion by digging burrows in sandy substrates, it relies on the keen senses of its blind shrimp counterpart to warn them of potential threats. As we delve deeper into this stunning photograph, we can't help but appreciate nature's ability to create such extraordinary relationships between species. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly inhospitable environments like muck-filled seabeds or undersea landscapes, life thrives in unexpected ways. Mathieu Meur's skillful photography transports us into this enchanting realm teeming with life and offers an awe-inspiring glimpse into one small corner of Southeast Asia's rich biodiversity.
