Honorable Mention
Stalactites
DESCRIPTION
The photo "Stalactites" captures the stalactite scenery from the cave "La Concha upstream". The picture was taken while diving in the Mexican Yucatan in November 2018. The caves are absolutely dark and a total of 5 flashes were used to capture the cave, two on the case and three external. AUTHOR
I have been a photographer for a long time and after I started diving in 2003, I took this hobby to the underwater world. So now I shoot both "above water" and "under water". I have visited different parts of the world, from warm southern oceans and seas, to geographically temperate places, to northern areas with very cold water. In recent years I have focused on photography in flooded cave systems in the Yucatan. This Mexican peninsula is home to the largest flooded cave systems in the world, hundreds of kilometres long. The world of flooded caves absolutely captivates me and compels me to capture this beauty in photographs and share it with others.
