UPY British Waters Living Together - Runner Up
'SS Persier'
Kirsty Andrews
The Persier is a crowd pleaser of a wreck. The usual dive plan involves descending on to the boilers and following the prop shaft to the stern. Wreck appreciators can see the various parts of the vessel laid out before them, history buffs will be aware of the wreck's story as a casualty of the Second World War. To me, the main draw is the wildlife: there are always shoaling bib and patrolling spider crabs as you can see in the picture, but also fields of pink sea fans, and potentially conger eels, anglerfish and thornback rays, to name but a few.
Judge's comment: A visually unambiguous message of life living together regardless. Well lit, well composed and, well, everything, really. - Peter Rowlands
