Hot on the heels of Blue Reef Photography, Matthew L. Wittenrich’s Aquatic Pixels is another repository of creative marine life photography. For those of you unfamiliar with Matt Wittenrich, he is the author of the premiere book on marine fish breeding, Breeder’s Guide to Marine Aquarium Fishes and he is also a PhD student at the Florida Institute of Technology where he actively researches the mechanics of how larval fish feed. We’ve been keeping on eye on his website for some time now, waiting patiently for him to load it up and when we saw his latest article in CORAL Magazine featuring stunning photographs of hermit crabs like the one above, we knew his website was ready for the big time. We were fortunate to have Matt volunteer a short statement about his website which you can find below and be sure to follow the link below for more examples of the fine photography which is viewable on AquaticPixels.net.

Aquatic Pixels was borne from my passion for both the marine aquarium hobby and photography; a mixing of science and art that portrays the intricate details and innate beauty of the sea and the creatures living within. I once read that ‘one can not conserve what they do not appreciate, and they can not appreciate what they have not seen’. As a scientist and hobbyist I believe that science can be beautiful and we can promote conservation and sustainability through education and art. Each creature living in the sea, independent of its size, is remarkable and when captured in the right light, the correct angle and pose, can be truly mind blowing. I am often attracted to the ordinary creatures that are so often overlooked by divers and hobbyists. Treating these animals as models, I shoot many of them in a studio where their true beauty stands alone. I am often blown away by some of the details these animals exhibit and if a fraction of this diversity is portrayed or earns a ‘wow’ among the crowd I feel I have contributed to the appreciation of the sea.

Aquatic Pixels是我对水族和摄影喜爱而产生的结晶品,将科学和艺术容合在一起的相片揭开了海洋的面纱.上次我读到"有些东西人们看不见,自然不会去欣赏,更 不会去保护“,更成为我的一种动力,作为一个科学家和水族爱好者,我相信科学也是一种美.每一个海洋生命,不管它的大小,只要在适合光照下,合理的角度和 位置,都是异常夺目.我经常会被一些常见的珊瑚吸引住,虽然它们经常被一些潜水爱好者和水族爱好者所忽略.我将它们当作是模特,并在摄影棚冲洗了许多照 片,我经常会被相片中的一些小细节而感到震憾,就像在人群中发现了一个小虫子爬过一样的感觉,我觉得一直在鉴赏海洋
