Finalist Human Connection Award: People & Planet Ocean

"I was waiting for sunset so that I could take some split shots showing the beautiful corals under the water when several snorkelers came down the pier and prepared to get in," says photographer Brook Peterson. "I realised the best story my image could tell was how people enjoy the sea and its beautiful corals, so I made this image with that intent."
