UPY British Waters Living Together - Highly Commended
'Shipwreck Shelter'
Shannon Moran
An Edible Crab (cancer pagurus) finds shelter within the broken wreckage of the F2 escort boat in Scapa Flow, Orkney. This wreck is often the second dive of the day on a Scapa battleship week, due to how shallow it is. Lying in 17 meters of water this wreck does not disappoint. Ling, crabs, pollack, anemones and seals now call this shipwreck home.
Judge's comment: The underwater world judges not. What, how or why an artifical reef arrived is of no interest. It very quickly gets colonised by marine creatures of all shapes and sizes. This clear composition is well lit and the diver is the icing on the message.
