Come with me on a journey into the deep blue. Where life is in abundance and diversity is all around you. Fish of all colours and shapes dart here and there moving to an invisible rhythm. The current guiding them in a coordinated dance above bright corals. Surrounded by deep vivid blue this is a world unlike any other. These are the waters of Indonesia, near Komodo Island.

I was so inspired by the memories I have taken home with me from diving these beautiful waters that I have created this series to capture the things I have seen.

Deep on a coral wall a Hawksbill Turtle drops down to rest and feed in the coral. Only once they arise for air does the turtle come out in plain sight and that unmistakable shape is visible. ‘Hidden Hawksbill’ captures a moment in time on the reef, with fish all around and sea creatures all gong about their own business. I was really thrilled to watch a hawksbill go about this exact activity on a dive in Indonesia – he went up for air several times and instinctively came back to the exact spot on the reef every time. A joy to watch!

Species included here are orange banded coralfish, Kleins butterflyfish, bumphead parrotfish, blue linckia sea star,  yellow-back fusiliers along with tiny blue green chromis and red anthias as always, filling up the reef.

As with all my pieces I take great care to represent the right species in the right place. I take my own photographs and study the fish and coral species to allow me to bring to life a true version of the underwater environment. It allows me to learn more about the places I love and helps me share the unique inhabitants that live there.
