EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of two Brown Sea Nettle jellyfish gracefully gliding through the water in a tank at the Melbourne Aquarium. Taken on 19 December 2006, these jellyfish, native to the Pacific and Indian oceans, are mildly dangerous to humans but pose no significant threat. The image is part of the Creepy Creatures exhibition, where they share space with an array of fascinating creatures. The main stars of this exhibition are undoubtedly the world's largest crabs, including Coconut Crabs that command attention with their impressive size and strength. However, visitors will also encounter an assortment of other intriguing species such as leeches, scorpions, centipedes, Giant Burrowing Cockroaches, Christmas Island Crabs, and Horseshoe Crabs. Photographer William West skillfully captures this offbeat moment in nature's underwater realm. The horizontal composition allows viewers to appreciate every delicate detail of these ethereal sea creatures as they float effortlessly against a backdrop reminiscent of their natural habitat. This AFP photo serves as a reminder that our planet is home to countless extraordinary beings that often go unnoticed or unappreciated. Through his lens and artistic vision, West invites us into a world teeming with wonder and diversity—a testament to both nature's ingenuity and our own fascination with its creations.
