My image of blacktip reef sharks in one of Palau’s mangrove lagoons made @natgeo Wildlife Photos of the Year. I photographed it on assignment for a story on Palau’s cutting-edge Indigenous reef conservation. This print is also available as a fundraiser for Amazon Indigenous peoples! tr.ee/Ogn6yodFJp
