The Underwater Project

I found about photographer, Mark Tipple, on the Adventure Journal site. The Underwater Project is fantastic photography and what better time to find it…. the end of summer. The waters still warm, but it’s getting colder.

So enjoy and remember the summer that was. Oh and the one ahead. His Underwater Project site is here but below, is a video of some of his work.
Also take a look at Mark’s other work The Gallery for Justice a really worthwhile cause and again great photography.
