Honoured to have my image “Arms of Connection” selected as a finalist in this year’s Ocean Photographer of the Year Award!
My photo was captured in the shallow water lagoon at Lady Elliot Island and shows two octopus mating - something that I’d never witnessed before.
It was such a crazy morning with so many octopuses around, all extremely active climbing over the reef. I added a few extra shots from the shoot to this post. Swipe to see them all 👉🏼
If you would like to see all the finalists, head to Ocean Photographer of the Year . Some incredible images in the lineup this year 👏
