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.
...from under the small isle of Borovnik (Adriatic,Croatia), my diving buddy is posing behind a large red Gorgonia.
This is a complicated version of the original (slidefilm). The frame was scanned decades ago to make an A3 sized paper print,
He has recently photographed the print (which is behind a sheet of glass, to complicate things even more), and it took some
work to crop out a part without too much reflections... so this is a photo of picture image of a slide photo's reproduction on the wall.
Naturally, in the photo quality sense the result is pretty disastrous, but curiously, the memories of the moment are still as fresh as ever.
And I'd like you to dwell on the memories only! :)
