EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing coral growth thriving inside the sunken wreck of the Lesleen M freighter. Sunk intentionally in 1985 to serve as an artificial reef, this shipwreck now lies gracefully at the bottom of Anse Cochon Bay in St. Lucia, West Indies. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns of the corals create a breathtaking sight against the backdrop of crystal-clear Caribbean waters. As nature reclaims its territory, this underwater scene showcases a wild and untouched world teeming with life. The remains of the freighter have become a haven for a large group of animals, showcasing animal themes in their natural habitat. The overgrown sea bed surrounding the shipwreck is home to countless species that have made it their sanctuary. Photographers Lisa Collins and Robert Harding skillfully capture this side view perspective, allowing us to appreciate both the grandeur and delicate details within this underwater ecosystem. With no people present, we are reminded of how powerful and resilient nature can be when given space to flourish. This photograph serves as a testament to our ability to coexist harmoniously with nature by repurposing man-made structures into beneficial habitats for marine life. It invites us to marvel at Mother Nature's ability to transform even remnants from human activity into something beautiful and full of life – an awe-inspiring reminder that our actions can positively impact our environment.
