I'm a Florida-based amateur photographer who loves to take pictures of marine ecosystems. If I'm fortunate enough to get a nice capture, I may enter it into a contest like APOY. The images below were shortlisted. Mantis Shrimp: https://www.photocrowd.com/photos/tiny-but-mighty-mantis-shrimp-10074235.02277ba87 This same Mantis Shrimp got an Honorable Mention in the MonoVision completion - BW. I got lucky... https://monovisionsawards.com/winners-gallery/monovisions-awards-2025/single/nature-and-wildlife/honorable-mentions Raja Ampat Reefs: https://www.photocrowd.com/photos/raja-ampats-wai-reef-10448499.7aaae5400 Most of the time, I dive with my adult daughter, with whom I team to capture good photos. But, I also travel by myself to visit fabulous dive destinations like Saba or St Maarten. I enjoy submitting to APOY the most, and sharing great pictures with fellow divers. Just wrapped up a super trip to St. Martin and Saba, where I captured a couple more cool photos. I'm looking to sharing with yourselves, and to be part of a group that loves the sea as much as I do.
