Roots run this town.

Close-up of pale mangrove prop roots descending into clear rippling water, shells and pebbles on the sand below. Clean modern vector.

The Story

Below the waterline at the Snook Islands, prop roots descend into clear shallows, shells and pebbles collecting on sand. Juvenile fish use roots as cover in this restored lagoon nursery. The 4:5 frame holds at root level, where the structure is.

The Making

  • Built root by root as flat vector in Illustrator, each root a closed shape over a soft rippled-water gradient from Photoshop.
  • Palette of five muted tones, the quietest in the set, with no texture pass - the surface is left clean.
  • Exported at 4488 × 5608 px, 300 dpi.
