Just beneath the waters

A new exhibition at Sydney’s Customs House in Australia showcases the work of photographer Matty Smith, who specialises in snapping marine wildlife in its usual habitat going about its daily business. The photos intrigued me enough to share, and include an American salt water croc snapped off Cuba grinning broadly at the lens, a Portuguese man o war (AKA bluebottle jellyfish) with its fluorescing community of underwater zooid colonies shot in Australia, some bright red Waratah anemones found in a rock pool at dawn and a night time nudibranch inching across the sea bottom.
