Silvery Goby Silhouette on Brain Coral

by Archer Clark

Silvery winter light penetrates clear water near Zanzibar, backlighting a goby perched on the textured lip of a brain coral. The fish appears as a dark shape against the illuminated water column, where suspended particles glitter like scattered dust. Rainy season conditions hang heavy above the reef crevice. The coral surface shows deep grooves and rounded ridges beside the smooth, streamlined body of the small fish. Drifting particles catch the light, forming a field of bright specks around the subject. The goby rests motionless on the coral edge, its fins tucked close to the stone.
