I'm a firm believer that through Film & Photography, especially now with social media, we can still protect nature the way explorers and photographers helped to created parks like Yellowstone back in 1872. Most of my professional career, I was surrounded by well educated, maybe the best educated people on earth, PhD and MBAs everywhere. Unfortunately, one thing I noticed is that only very few knew anything about the ocean and the importance of it. Not to mention its beauty & magnificence. It is only through knowledge that humans can potentially care and eventually protect"
On very rare occasions I get the chance to be on the other side of the lens, via a selfie or a by getting a nice capture by some friends and colleagues.... among the best highlights I would say it is Bogomil Balkansky's shot of the sperm whale, simply amazing...
