Ashley Missen, Octopus and Dragons - the Beautiful colours of the sea (Wildlife and Animal 2017)

These two creatures are my favourite to photograph underwater due to the stunning colours they both have and the fact that they are both not easy creature to capture in a dramatic way. I have put these images in as a display between the action of the moment and capturing the environment that they are in, The Octopus images are from the warm waters of Byron Bay while the Sea Dragon ones are from the temperate waters of Melbourne. Each Image has it own unique qualities but they all show the beauty that is our underwater world.

Images have been resized for web display, which may cause some loss of image quality. Note: Original high-resolution images are used for judging.
