During seasonal aggregations in the Sea of Cortez, thousands of mobula rays gather near the surface in mesmerizing formations. Their synchronized movements create a living spectacle beneath the waves — beautifully captured in Motion of the Ocean by underwater photographer Pier Nirandara.
In honor of AWARE Week, this card celebrates one of the ocean's most captivating ray species and the importance of protecting sharks and rays through initiatives like the Global Shark & Ray Census from PADI AWARE®.
This limited-edition certification card is now available as both a physical card and eCard.
Born and raised in Thailand, underwater photographer, travel writer and explorer Pier Nirandara uses storytelling and imagery to foster a deeper connection with the ocean.
Through her photography, writing and voice, she encourages greater appreciation for the species that call our blue planet home.
This philosophy is reflected in Motion of the Ocean. As she explains, "To whoever holds this card: may it be a reminder of what lies beneath, and of everything worth protecting."
Featuring the iconic Stiliger ornatus, this adorable certification card proves that some of the ocean's most fascinating creatures are also among its smallest.
