EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Dave Fleetham showcases a close-up side view of a pale soldierfish (Myripristis Hexagona) with a large parasitic isopod. The intricate details captured in this small-scale image transport us to the depths of the ocean, where marine life thrives in its natural habitat. In this nocturnal scene, illuminated only by the faint glow of bioluminescent organisms and the vibrant colors of tropical coral reefs, we witness an extraordinary interaction between two species. The pale soldierfish, with its delicate pink scales and striking red fins, stands out against the dark backdrop of the deep Pacific Ocean. However, it is not alone. Attached to its body is a large parasitic isopod that has found refuge on this unsuspecting host. This variety of parasite feeds off the soldierfish's resources while providing an intriguing example of symbiotic relationships within marine ecosystems. The intense orange eye of the soldierfish seems to reflect both curiosity and resilience as it navigates through these challenging waters. Its presence reminds us of nature's ability to adapt and survive even in harsh conditions. Dave Fleetham's exceptional talent for capturing underwater scenes allows us to appreciate the beauty and complexity hidden beneath our oceans' surfaces. Through his lens, we gain insight into a world rarely seen but teeming with life and wonder.
