  • From the Introduction: <br />
<br />
Wild Waters is a pictorial and written journal illustrating a handful of vibrant and <br />
diverse aquatic ecosystems—Indonesia’s Komodo National Park, Lembeh Strait <br />
and Bali; Brazil’s Bonito region; Mexico’s Guadalupe Island; and my home for the <br />
last twenty years, South Florida.<br />
<br />
On a global scale, these locations cover insignificant, minute territory, but they are<br />
unique and contribute exponentially to our planet’s richness. These hotspots of<br />
biological wealth deserve our immediate attention and care. At the very least, people<br />
should be aware of them to understand what’s at stake when our actions threaten<br />
sensitive areas.<br />
<br />
When I began this project two years ago, I purposely chose these places because <br />
they are where I like to photograph—the more remote and unknown, the better. Well, <br />
how about Bali and Florida? Believe me, they can still be rediscovered and <br />
photographed from an entirely new perspective. Fortunately, there’s a lot of <br />
wild left in both, especially below the waterline.<br />
<br />
I consider this is my best work so far. Wild Waters showcases celebratory images <br />
as well as those depicting our heavy and messy footprints on the natural world. <br />
These photos are more relevant than ever because they can inspire us to makes <br />
things better. As you follow my bubbles in Wild Waters, I hope you enjoy my images <br />
as much as I enjoyed making them.<br />
