In this underwater shot, a man in a pale yellow long-sleeve shirt, fins, and snorkel hovers just beneath the surface, holding his cupped hand out towards the camera. In his hand is an open clamshell with what looks like a starfish with long spindly legs inside. In the background is blue water with a rocky seafloor, and the vague outline of a few other swimmers.
