The order of my reactions when viewing this picture.
1.Pretty.
2.Wow, that coral is almost enclosing her. I wonder if there are any sharks are near by. Or other creatures.
3. Gee, we sure do know little about the deep sea.
4. What is the meaning of life?
Sum of all, a great photography and really made me think. In terms of composition, I love how the photographer chose to have her right smack center of the picture.
No oxygen tank?
