EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of Motukiekie Beach, a hidden gem nestled near Punakaiki on the west coast of South Island, New Zealand. The Pacific Ocean stretches out endlessly in this vertical composition, showcasing the vibrant colors and rich biodiversity that make this destination truly remarkable. In the foreground, a large group of common starfish (Asterias rubens) gracefully adorn the rocky shoreline. Their striking orange hue stands out against the rugged landscape, creating a stunning contrast against the deep blue waters. This snapshot of wildlife in its natural habitat reminds us of the incredible diversity found beneath our oceans. The photographer's skillful use of long exposure adds an ethereal touch to this scene. The blurred motion of crashing waves creates a sense of movement and dynamism, while also highlighting the tranquility and serenity that can be found at dusk on Motukiekie Beach. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to an untouched paradise where nature reigns supreme. With no people in sight, we are left alone with our thoughts to appreciate both the grandeur and delicate intricacies that exist within our world. Karen Deakin has masterfully captured not only a picturesque travel destination but also an intimate glimpse into New Zealand culture and its profound connection with nature.
