Finalist Adventure Photographer of the Year

Christophe Mason-Parker Seychelles

"My wife and I were snorkelling over the vast seagrass beds that surround Desroches Island in Seychelles," says photographer Christophe Mason-Parker. "I wanted to capture an image of her snorkelling close to shore that highlighted the healthy Thalassodendron meadows, along with the coconut palms, which fringe the shoreline."
