A hypnotic image of golden bull kelp seaweed in New Zealand

Although the majority of my underwater photography features images of green turtles, humpback whales, manta rays and other examples of marine life, there are moments when I find the ocean ecosystem surrounding us just as compelling. For example, the bull kelp seaweed swaying in New Zealand waters as pictured here was completely hypnotising.

With the hints of gold and the rich, deep blue of the water in the background, this image offers an incredible glimpse of the profound vibrancy of ocean life. In fact, the Poor Knights Islands are the remnants of a 4 million year old volcano in the Pacific Ocean, and the sense of history and enduring existence that saturated these waters is definitely present in this image. From the rugged texture of the rocks, the busy gathering of fish close-by, to the ethereal light streaming in from the surface; all of these details together create a compelling sense of stumbling across a mystical, unknown world.
