Widescreen whales and close-up corals: Check out the 2023 Ocean Art winners

The winners and runners up of the annual Ocean Art Underwater Photo Competition have been announced. Best in Show and Best Portrait went to the impressive ‘Aquatic Primate’ shot (pictured above) by Suliman Alatiqi. In the image, a Crab-Eating Macaque goes in search of some sea-based lunch.

New rules were added for the 2023 competition to disallow any us of AI in the creation of the images. Winners were announced for 14 categories from thousands of entries across 90 countries with over $120,000 (€110,000) awarded.
