Towering Sea Fan Coral in a Vertical Blue Seascape
sea fan · vertical reef · blue ocean · social story
A tall branching sea fan coral rises from a rocky reef base in a 9:16 portrait composition designed for a vertical social story. Place the fan slightly below center, its burgundy lattice spreading upward through clear cobalt water, leaving the upper fifth relatively uncluttered for optional story interface elements. Photograph from a low angle so the branching silhouette feels elegant and architectural. A narrow shaft of late afternoon sunlight outlines the upper branches, while small yellow fish remain distant and secondary. Retain delicate mesh openings, uneven organic growth, and natural seafloor encrustations. Keep the composition readable on a phone without embedding any text.
