The first major book in two decades by the pioneering underwater
photographer, beloved as the 'Audubon of the sea' The ocean covers
more than seventy percent of our planet, and yet we rarely glimpse
its depths - and especially its exquisite beauty as documented by
legendary photographer David Doubilet. His work in and on water has
set the standard for decades. In this remarkable and
highly-anticipated collection by artist and diver David Doubilet,
whose innovation, eye for beauty, and passion for conservation have
long set the bar for underwater photography, Doubilet unites life
above and below the water's surface. Spotlighting a stunning
selection of images from Doubilet's 50-year career, spanning the
Galapagos to the Red Sea, the icy waters of the Antarctic Ocean to
the tropical Great Barrier Reef, this body of work raises important
questions about conservation and global warming, topics never far
from the headlines. 'I want to create a window into the sea', he
says, that invites people to see how their world connects to
another life-sustaining world hidden from their view. Doubilet's
photographs are accompanied by an introduction by Kathy Moran and
an afterword by Kathryn D. Sullivan.
