EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Terry Moore captures a mesmerizing scene in the depths of Beqa Lagoon, Fiji. In this underwater wonderland, remoras gracefully suck onto the hull of a shipwreck, showcasing their unique commensal relationship with these artificial reefs. The image showcases the vibrant colors and diverse marine life found in Oceania's Melanesian waters. Against a backdrop of crystal-clear turquoise sea, rays of sunlight illuminate the scene, creating an ethereal ambiance. Remoras, also known as suckerfish or shark-suckers, are fascinating creatures that have evolved to attach themselves to larger animals such as sharks and whales using their specialized dorsal fins modified into suction cups. In this instance, they have chosen the abandoned shipwreck as their host. The large group of remoras clinging to the hull creates an awe-inspiring sight. Their streamlined bodies and side view perspective highlight their sleek swimming abilities while emphasizing their role in maintaining healthy ecosystems through commensalism. This photograph not only showcases nature's beauty but also offers insight into animal behavior and zoology. It serves as a reminder of the intricate connections between different species within our oceans' delicate balance. Terry Moore's skillful photography transports us into this underwater realm where we can appreciate both the wonders of marine biology and humanity's impact on aquatic environments.
