Sometimes there’s a beauty in a purely abstract image. Shooting in black and white and playing around with depth of field are ways to create images that mesmerize us with their shapes and forms. The success of this shot, for me, is the shallow depth of field. A sharp depth of field would have been very confusing, as all the elements would have been in focus. The interplay between the sharp tags and the soft ones, as well as the light and dark, make for an image that has staying power: You want to keep looking at it endlessly.

The most common color morph found is pure, dark or light blue, although one can find the aqua, purple or orange variation throughout the ocean. These sea stars may grow up to 30 cm/11.75” in diameter, with rounded tips at each of its arms — some individuals may bear light or darker spots along each of its arms. It is firm in texture, and possessing slightly tubular, elongated arms common to most of other Ophidiasteridae, and usually possessing short, yellowish tube feet. An inhabitant of coral reefs and sea grass beds, this species is relatively common and found in sparse density throughout its range.
The genus Linckia is known to be creatures with remarkable regenerative power, capable of defensive autotomy against predators and may reproduce asexually
