Infographic titled “How to be a Seahorse-Friendly Photographer” with a blue ocean-themed background, showing a yellow seahorse and a camera. It lists do’s and don’ts for underwater photographers: DO’s: Keep your distance: Stay at least 30cm (1 foot) away from seahorses to avoid causing stress. Be mindful: If a seahorse shows stress (erratic movements, swimming away, rapid gill movement), give it space and back off. Limit your time: Avoid more than 4 divers or snorkelers and keep interactions short. Limit lighting: Strong underwater lights can disturb seahorses. Use them minimally and turn them off if stress is observed. DON’Ts: No touching: Avoid all physical contact with seahorses and their habitat. No sticks or tools: Never use tools to touch or move seahorses. Bottom text: “Learn more: www.iucn-seahorse.org” with the Seahorse, Pipefish & Seadragon Specialist Group logo.
