EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the rare Colemans coral shrimp, a fascinating creature found in Gorontalo, Sulawesi, Indonesia. The image captures the vibrant colors and intricate details of this small arthropod as it thrives in its natural habitat. The Colemans coral shrimp, scientifically known as Vir colemani, is a commensal shrimp that forms a symbiotic relationship with sea anemones. In this close-up shot, you can see how the transparent body of the shrimp perfectly blends with the polyps of an anemone. This unique adaptation allows them to camouflage themselves and seek protection from predators. Photographer Steve Jones skillfully captures the beauty of this marine species against a backdrop of crystal-clear waters. The vertical composition emphasizes both the delicate nature of these creatures and their importance within their ecosystem. This image not only highlights the stunning biodiversity found in Indonesian waters but also serves as a reminder of our planet's fragile ecosystems. It offers us a glimpse into the wonders that lie beneath our oceans and encourages us to appreciate and protect these living organisms. Whether you are an underwater enthusiast or simply drawn to nature's marvels, this mesmerizing print will transport you to another world filled with awe-inspiring wildlife encounters.
