UPY Wrecks - Highly Commended
'Badai Wreck'
Yen-Yi Lee
The underwater panorama photo comprising 10 images shows the magnificient Badai wreck.
In 1983, the rough seas caused by a typhoon heavily damaged a Korean cargo ship near Lanyu, Taiwan. The ship was abandoned and finally sank in 40 meters in Badai bay. After more than 35 years, the wreck has turned into a wonderland for sealife and is also one of the most famous dive sites in Lanyu.
Judge's comment: Panoramas make it possible to capture a scene which would be impossible with just a single shot. This it the right choice of technique for this subject; add a distant diver for scale and you have a world class image.
