I specialize in underwater macro, behavioral, and have written 2 books, "Under the Bridge" and the "BHB Companion," -photo documentaries on the unusual marine life found at the Blue Heron Bridge, Florida. However, for the last 3 years now I have submerged into the art of Black Water diving, and underwater model photography. The Black Water diving is without a doubt next level - - -. We know so little about our oceans, so its up to us to photograph it!
