Description

This harlequin shrimp photograph by Edwar Herreno is a mesmerising study in contrast and colour. Set against a jet black background, the opulent shrimp dominates the foreground, creating an impression of power and presence. Despite their small size, rarely exceeding 5 cm/2 in., Herreno’s framing and lighting make the shrimp appear imposing and larger than life.

These shy creatures usually seek refuge in dark crevices and branched corals to protect themselves from predators such as fish, crabs, and octopuses. The image captures the beauty and delicate complexity of the harlequin shrimp, showcasing its unique patterns and colours and revealing the intricate details of this rarely seen marine creature. Herreno’s harlequin shrimp photograph highlights the contrast between its vulnerability and the commanding portrayal he achieves.
