I love to get in close, Stalk and study behavior. Doing so without a re-breather is no easy task. I was taught to minimize the distance and water between the subject and your lense. Paint a little color with a complementing flash of light and let nature do the rest. I try to approach every dive as if it is the best dive of my life and somehow something always stands up to perform. While I travel worldwide to capture photos underwater, I'm fortunate to have a place to shoot in my own backyard... The Channel Islands.
