About the Photographer
Retired pro, but a lifelong amateur at heart. Also a diver with decades of experience, and still addicted to underwater photography. I never go to water without a camera, to be able to record the beauties of the submerged Nature. Which, as you well know, covers the largest part of the Earth.
I will enjoy what our wonderful Earth offers to our eyes and mind for as long as I can.
Corallium rubrum, one of the most appreciated coral sorts has been used for many decades in creating various jewelry and embellishments (all useless). Craved by many who never did understand what damage is done to the underwater environment by mass exploitation of this colonial animal, it is still mercilessly taken out and turned into unnecessary things. I wish this practice should cease, and be finally replaced by global understanding... Photo by:
