TITLE: Inside the wave

Most of the wave photographs are taken above water from a shore. This series was taken on scuba dives during the storm.

The pictures do not fit ordinary underwater photography because they investigate the surface and not the deep of the sea. This is a view suitable to underwater creatures that would have curiosity about the world beyond their natural environment as humans are curious about the world under the surface.

In the photos I try to visualize my underwater experience and share it with the viewer.  Looking at the images the viewer experiences waves like the creatures of the sea and feel more responsible for the safety of their amazing world.
