SWIMMING in unison, millions of silverside fish dwarf the divers. The fish create waves of silver light as they move around the grottos that lie beneath the surface of the Caribbean Sea. These amazing photographs were captured by Belgian photographer Ellen Cuylaerts, 44, on a diving trip to the Devil's Grotto, Cayman Islands. ‘Every year predators and divers await the arrival of the silversides,’ says Ellen, now of Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands.
