Known for its peculiar disk-shape and gentle demeanor, a large #Molamola #oceansunfish glides below the water’s surface, turning slightly sideways towards the sunlight.
Above water, dozens of small translucent #Velella float gracefully on the rolling waves. Their rigid sail-like appendages, in shades of blue, purple, and silver, catch the breeze, propelling them to destinations unknown.
One is about to eat the other.
