"A whitemouth moray eel emerges from the reef following a coral bloom in Honaunau Bay, Hawaii," wrote Barry Fackler of his image, a winning selection in the Portraits of Planet Ocean Flickr contest. Whitemouth morays (Gymnothorax meleagris) hide in the crevices of Indo-Pacific coral reefs with only their heads (and white mouths) emerging, mouths agape, to breathe and hunt crustaceans and fish.
