Flower
Taken in Timor Leste. Banda sea. Pacific.
When I dive above coral gardens, I feel like I am flying across a painting. The shapes and forms that unravel underneath me are sheer poetry.
Light danced through the shallow waters of Timor Leste as I stopped directly above what looked like a flower to me. I fell in love with something I could not name.
The exact species of corals is difficult to identify without genetic testing or the examination under a microscope. The colloquial name for this beauty is leather coral. For unknown reasons it either shed or retracted its polyps revealing its bare structure. That information gave me goosebumps. How often do we dare to reveal ourselves? The sea remains my favourite teacher I keep learning from.
