“This is the second time in two years that I have come to Moalboal to photograph the interaction between a sardine school and a model,” explains Hongjun. “Dada-Li, who is training to be a freediver here, wore her own customised fishtail, and after trying to get the perfect shot for several days, I finally caught this wonderful moment on a sunny morning. It embodies the idea that humans and marine life can exist in harmony.”
