Winners of this year's University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science underwater photography competition for 2012 were recently announced. This stunning sea nettle was captured by Todd Aki in Monterey, California and was voted Fan Favorite, a first for the contest.  Portraits, macro, and wide-angle photos were honored from entries taken across the planet. Our seas and oceans have a lot to offer and this contest showcases their beauty and variety. Check out the other winners at the school's website here.
