The 2nd-place prizewinning image is of an anemonefish or clownfish, taken by Sydney Gayda of Vermont.. There are more than two dozen species of clownfish. Depending on their species, clownfish are yellow, orange, reddish or blackish and many sport white patches or bars. They are native to warmer waters of the Indian and Pacific oceans.
