Shipwreck and snappers
Shipwreck and snappers (family Lutjanidae). This ship was sunk to create a new artificial reef. This helps to encourage coral growth and marine life by providing a new habitat for them. Holes in the ship were created by knocking out cover plates below the waterline in order to sink it. Photographed off Kapalai, Sabah, Malaysia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a shipwreck nestled amidst a vibrant underwater world teeming with snappers, belonging to the Lutjanidae family. The ship was intentionally sunk to create an artificial reef, serving as a haven for marine life and fostering coral growth. Located off the coast of Kapalai in Sabah, Malaysia, this ecological initiative aims to provide new habitats for various species. To sink the vessel strategically, holes were meticulously created by removing cover plates below the waterline. This deliberate act not only transformed the ship into an enchanting wreck but also promoted biodiversity and ecological balance beneath the waves. The image captures the beauty of nature's resilience as colorful corals cling onto every available surface of the sunken vessel while snappers gracefully navigate their newfound home. It serves as a testament to how human intervention can positively impact marine ecosystems by creating thriving environments that support diverse aquatic life forms. In this mesmerizing snapshot taken by Science Photo Library, we are reminded of our responsibility to protect and preserve our oceans' delicate ecosystems. Such initiatives exemplify how technology and environmental science can work hand in hand towards sustainable practices that benefit both humans and wildlife alike.
