Finalist Conservation Photographer of the Year

Galice Hoarau United States

26°56'31.1"N 80°02'13.3"W

A shark with a fishing hook and line protruding from its mouth. “Jupiter is a great place to dive with sharks,” says photographer Galice Hoarau. “Multiple species can be seen in significant numbers during a single dive. Unfortunately, human pressures are strong in the area and most individuals carry marks of their encounters with our species: hooks, fishing lines, broken jaws or bullet wounds.”
