Sailfish Dorsal Fin Rising in Kelp Forest in through a forest of kelp fronds near Split

Sailfish Dorsal Fin Rising in Kelp Forest

by Nia Swanson

Pale gold light from a low morning sun strikes the horizon haze, filtering down through a dense forest of kelp fronds near Split. A sailfish moves horizontally across the wide panoramic view, its tall dorsal fin fully extended like a dark sail cutting through the water. Monsoon season plankton haze softens the distant kelp stalks into ghostly shapes against the deep blue. The fish's scales shimmer with iridescent silver where the light hits them, while tiny particles float in the water, catching the glow. The scene rests in a stillness where the only movement is the slow drift of the fish against the swaying fronds. One ray of light catches the tip of the dorsal fin, glowing bright against the dark water.
