A juvenile flying fish. “This tiny flying fish was drifting along just below the ocean surface,” says photographer Jack McKee. “I was immediately drawn to its amazing wing-like fins. I held my camera beneath it and shot upwards, to reveal the underside of the fish, with the sky visible through the water. This creates the illusion that the fish is flying in the sky.”
