Snappers Swirl Around Shipwreck Mast Under Starlight in near Diocletian's Palace, Split

Snappers Swirl Around Shipwreck Mast Under Starlight

by Valentino Hutchinson

Silver snappers form a tight, swirling vortex around a rusted iron mast rising from the seabed. The water holds a deep, inky blue, punctuated by suspended particles that glitter like scattered diamond dust. Faint ground glow from the distant surface illuminates the fish scales and the corroded texture of the ancient metal. Behind the school, the shadowy silhouette of Diocletian's Palace ruins rests on the sandy floor, its stone blocks partially buried in silt. Late spring currents keep the water clear enough to see the individual fins cutting through the fluid. The shallow depth of field blurs the distant stone columns while keeping the nearest fish sharp against the dark background. One scale reflects the starlight above, creating a tiny point of white brilliance on the creature's flank.
