Metaphorical Reflection – Underwater and Above

2 01 2010

It’s not often that such prolific coral grows so close to the surface. I was awestruck when I visualized an image of the trees above the water’s surface peering down at the magical trees beneath. Metaphorical reflections of mimicry.

Giant Underwater Image

14 11 2009

I just returned from the DEMA Show, which is the annual trade show for the scuba diving industry. Greeting all of the attendees was a giant ad for Curacao Tourism that graced the front entrance to the Orlando convention center. It was a great use of outdoor ad space by Curacao Tourism! It was also the largest I have ever seen one of my images printed. Coolness factor – 10+

Wendy is actually the silhouetted diver in the ad, and as you can see she is sitting here just under it. The silhouette is basically life size. This is a BIG print! 





Underwater Geisha Images Feature in German Dive Magazine

21 10 2009

My underwater Geisha series was featured as a main 6 page spread in the largest dive magazine in Europe this month – the German magazine Unterwasser. This particular dive magazine always has outstanding photography, and although I don’t understand the words, I enjoy browsing through it regularly because of the imagery. I hope this month that the readers of Unterwasser enjoy my conceptual underwater photography.
