 The University of Miami’s Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science has sponsored an underwater photography contest each year since 2005. The contest, which is open only to amateur photographers who earn no more than twenty percent of their income from photography, announced the winners of the 2013 contest today. Photographers from all over the world enter the contest, submitting more than 400 images per year.

Saltwater Nation citizens around the world should appreciate these amazing images, and we at Inventive Fishing congratulate the winners. You have produced some remarkable work, and we are grateful to you for sharing them with the world. Our particular acknowledgement to Laura Rock, who not only won the Best Student Entry category for her photo “Goliath grouper (Epinephelus itajara) during the annual spawning event in Jupiter, FL.” (which we have lifted from the contest site in order to share with you here), but who also took second place in the category for her photo “Great hammerhead (Sphyrna mokarran) in Bimini, Bahamas.” We encourage you to visit the site to see all of the winning entries. They are magnificent.

FISH ON!
