Grateful to have my photo of this Crinoid shrimp in its home, a feather star, as shortlisted image for the People’s choice in the National Geographic Traveller UK photography competition. Ocean currents revealed the shrimp amongst the chaotic movements of the feather stars arms. Diving is really the only way to see these almost alien creatures.
Shortlisted images are currently exhibited in an open space at Kings Cross from now until July 12th. Go along and vote or vote online via the Nat Geo Traveller website.
This image was also first place winner of the Underwater category in the Phi international photography awards, and honorable mention in the Water and Life category of the Lumearth photography awards.
