This Month in Photo of the Day: The Stories Behind Your Shots

My home is Tahiti and I am a dive guide working on board private megayachts, joining my clients anywhere in the world for unique  dive experiences. I was cruising New Caledonia with one of my clients, around the small Loyalty island of Ouvea. While we were diving over a beautiful untouched reef, I noticed this crinoid in the distance because of its unusual colors. When I got closer, I realized the high photo potential of this  creature. Sea feathers are quite common around New Caledonia, but it was the only time I had come across this amazing, colorful specimen.

  我的家在南太平洋的塔希提岛上,我也是一名私人游艇上的潜水导游,与顾客们一起在世界各地进行独特的潜水之旅。当时与一位客人同在南太平洋的新喀里多尼亚岛之行中,游艇航行在洛亚尔提群岛的乌韦阿岛的周边。我们潜游在一片美丽的野生珊瑚礁上方,同时我注意到远处的海百合与众不同的颜色,近看才发现这种生物可拍性很强。新喀里多尼亚岛海域的海鳃(海笔)都大致相同,但这是我唯一一次看见如此惊异、缤纷的种类。
