Charter yachts sail through the lagoon of Raiatea and Tahaa toward Bora Bora during the Tahiti Pearl Regatta. I was halfway up the mast of a cat when I got lucky and caught the boats' shadows on the sandy bottom.
Surfer and green sea turtle dive under a wave at Rocky Point, Oahu, Hawaii. The turtle is lit with a dive flash attached to the surf water camera housing.
I happened to see this couple in British Columbia and snapped the photo as we sailed by. What a great lifestyle.
Self-portrait of a night watch while sailing from Hawaii to Samoa on a full moon. The red light is provided by the compass as well as a camera flash with a red filter attached.
I used a low angle, and included the sun in the shot to give this dad and his son a warm glow.
On an ocean crossing, I used an off camera flash with a radio trigger to augment the portside running light, to freeze the subject, and cast a shadow on the sail.
One of many impressive waterfalls in Toba Inlet, British Columbia. I jumped in a dinghy and shot from a distance to capture the scale of the scene. Waioli is a Dutch steel motor yacht by Linssen.
Full moon over Waikiki. This is a longer exposure, so in order to keep the foreground (boat/people) sharp, I used a tripod on the foredeck.
Shot with an underwater camera housing, this image required that I dive down and hang onto the anchor chain while waiting for the diver to swim out of the light toward me
