I'm starting 8th week in the thematic cycle with this colorful alcyonaria and the school of anchovies taken under the pier of Airborei island jetty in Raja Ampat. After spending too much time in the monochromatic pelagic world of dolphins and sharks sometimes for the change it's good fun to go to the place like this and enjoy best coral variety in the world. Image is not cropped and post-processing limited to the slight exposure correction - so you can see how beautiful healthy natural environment can be ! ^_^
