Butterflyfish Feeding on Coral Polyps in Mombasa

by Melanie Hancock

Rich amber sunset light fills an indoor space where a pair of butterflyfish hovers over a patch of dew-soaked moss. The fish display vibrant orange and white stripes against the deep green of the wet vegetation. Rainy season moisture glistens on the moss blades, catching the warm glow of nearby lamplight that settles into the room's corners. The centered composition places the fish directly in the frame, their fins slightly spread as they feed on the tiny coral polyps nestled within the moss. Fine droplets rest on the fish's scales, reflecting the copper-toned light. The texture of the wet moss contrasts with the smooth, iridescent skin of the fish. A small ripple disturbs the surface of a dew drop near the fish's tail.
