" We do not inherit the world from our parents but rather borrow it from our children! " I have to say we are doing a really bad job with it. Take for instance the underwater world, with so much to show and offer incredibly magical. To go underwater and spend time in this truly magical place is out of this world, once you have tried it you will be hooked for life. I am! There is no comparison. Unfortunately the devastation is more obvious underwater than anywhere else. Many reefs are dying and some already extinct. Global warming is part of it and we humans are responsible for this. Just +2 degrees changes the ecosystem so much that corals will die. I have seen this in many parts of the world. There are many other factors but it is all our fault. So what we borrow from our children, we will not be able to give it back. Can I say that I was fortunate to see it in my time? What about them? In just 30 years all of the coral reefs can disappear and with it trillions of beautiful creatures. It is a shame and I will try to do my part as much and however I can to help and preserve it for the next generation. I just hope that its not to late!

These photos are from Cuba in the Varadero region, the weather was a bit stormy and visibility was not he best like last year when I was there. This year I have taken my pro underwater gear with me Canon 5D Mark II camera with a 15mm 2.8 Fisheye lens in an Ikelite underwater housing, no external flash or video light. Some of the images where adjusted in Photoshop to bring a bit of color back into the images. It is actually amazing how much information there is and PS can help bring it back. This was my test run with the camera, the first dive with the Russian War ship, bad lighting but the camera and lens helped a lot, second dive, reef dive with lots of currents. Please enjoy these photos
