The centrepiece of the Celebrate Our Seas events, this photographic competition is used to remind us that life is fragile and that we need to take care of nature.  The photographs are a celebration of marine life, how amazing nature is and how diverse, beautiful and inspiring it is.

The photos are truly amazing, I’ve seen this year’s entries and it is truly worth the visit to the Iziko South African Museum, 25 Queen Victoria Street, Cape Town between 7 October and 23 November 2014 (9am – 5pm daily).  From fish to birds to mammals, they’re all there and in jaw-dropping quality pics!  If you’re in the area, pop in!
