Speed of Light
DESCRIPTION
I would often look for rare critters at night time, exploring deep waters in the hopes of chancing upon wonderful sights. I follow the currents most of the time as it would allow me to see more marine life

At night over deep water, this larva Africa Pipono start looking for food in the dark ocean
AUTHOR
As an underwater photographer, Cai is very keen in blackwater diving where he is able to explore different kinds of marine life. He is also fond of blackwater photography because for him, it is one of the mediums where in the wonder of these sea creatures are emphasized, as the stars shine brighter in the pitch black skies, the dark seas also give his photo subjects this unique glow that can only be attained in black waters. In the recent years, Cai’s work have been featured in various magazines and marine research books with some even winning awards in various international competitions.
