Description

Ha,apai, Tonga, and the sun is setting over the colourful reef below. Two star fish perch high on the corals as if to get themselves a perfect view of the sun disappearing below the horizon. My idea here was to use a very narrow aperture which then creates the flaring effect on the sun and in turn makes it look like another star. I feel that this helps to join the two portions of the image together and create an artistic flow between the two halves.
