EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Mathieu Meur captures a mesmerizing moment in the waters of Aliwal Shoal, South Africa. In this image, a pair of oceanic blacktip sharks gracefully swim past each other, with remora fish hitching a ride on their sleek bodies. The vibrant blue background highlights the beauty and mystery of the underwater world. Aliwal Shoal is known for its rich marine biodiversity, and this photograph showcases the incredible diversity found in these waters. The presence of these majestic elasmobranchs reminds us of both their danger and importance to marine ecosystems. The symbiotic relationship between the sharks and remora is evident here - while providing transportation for the remora, the sharks benefit from having these small fish clean parasites off their skin. This commensalism exemplifies nature's intricate web of interactions. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of our responsibility to protect threatened species like oceanic blacktip sharks. Their survival is crucial for maintaining healthy oceans worldwide. Mathieu Meur's skillful photography allows us to witness this dynamic scene firsthand, immersing ourselves in the wonders that lie beneath the surface. It serves as a powerful reminder that our planet's beauty extends far beyond what meets our eyes above water level.
