EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the ethereal beauty of cup coral polyps hanging delicately under a ledge on a vibrant reef in Fiji. The mesmerizing scene showcases the wonders of sea life in all its glory, with an array of colors and textures that create a captivating underwater tableau. The image transports us to the enchanting world beneath the waves, where these animal themes come alive against a black background. The white sea cups stand out against their surroundings, drawing our attention to their intricate details and graceful forms. Each close-up shot reveals the fascinating structure of these invertebrate creatures known as tubastrea or sun coral. As we explore this snapshot of nature's magnificence, we are reminded of the importance of preserving marine ecosystems like those found in Oceania's Melanesia region. These stony corals belong to the dendrophylliidae family and are part of the scleractinia order, commonly referred to as hard corals. Their presence not only adds aesthetic value but also supports diverse wildlife populations. Terry Moore's photography skillfully captures this moment, showcasing his deep understanding and appreciation for marine biology and zoology. Through his lens, he invites us into a world teeming with life – from tentacles gently swaying in ocean currents to microscopic details that reveal unseen wonders. This print is more than just an image; it is an invitation to marvel at nature's grace and immerse ourselves in its infinite mysteries.
