EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a breathtaking moment in the depths of Cenderawasih Bay, West Papua, Indonesia. A pair of majestic whale sharks gracefully swim towards the surface, their massive bodies silhouetted against the radiant sun, sky, and intricate fishing nets below. The image showcases the raw beauty of animals in their natural habitat. The composition is truly mesmerizing as it portrays a diver accompanied by a remora swimming alongside these gentle giants. The horizontal frame perfectly frames this awe-inspiring scene, highlighting the vastness of the underwater world. Mathieu Meur's photography expertise shines through in this color image that beautifully depicts Rhincodon typus or whale sharks - filter feeders belonging to Orectolobiformes order. These vulnerable species are showcased amidst an enchanting marine environment teeming with sea life. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of our responsibility to protect these threatened creatures and their fragile ecosystems from harm caused by activities such as fishing industry and pollution. As sunlight pierces through the water's surface, casting shimmering rays upon them, we witness nature at its most magnificent. Intriguingly juxtaposed against this serene backdrop are faint figures of people in the background - perhaps reminding us that human presence can both marvel at and impact these incredible creatures' existence. This stunning piece transports viewers into Southeast Asia's Indo-Pacific Ocean realm where cartilaginous fish like whale sharks reign supreme. Overall, Mathieu Meur's remarkable work encapsulates not only his skill
