"Maria Di Paolo-Greer, a skilled diver, accomplished photographer
and passionate naturalist provides a rare look at stunning animals and
ocean environments few of us will ever be fortunate enough to visit.
The personal narrative accompanying these breathtaking photographs
seems to bring the remarkable jewel-toned creatures to life, inspiring
us to appreciate, value and ultimately protect Earth's undersea realm." - Dr. Sharon Franks, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego
"Mud
puppies to salt water elitist, newbies to old salts, anyone finding the
joy of SCUBA will identify with Maria's photo travelogue of Palau and Papua New Guinea. The absolute fulfillment of finding and documenting that elusive critter is often what it's all about. A great read for those interested in what lies below the glassy surface of the undiscovered ocean world." - Ida Cook, Master Diver
"After reading the challenges of underwater photography, you see
these beautiful, colorful pictures. You continue to flip through this
book and marvel at what the author is trying to share with the world. "How hard can it be?" How hard indeed, the beauty of these photographs
is a testament to the dedication and determination of the author to
share with us what she sees when she enters a world that few ever
enjoy, and fewer still care to share. The currents, swells, predators,
and a stubborn determination to get the best shot possible are in each
and every photo. There must be salt in her veins." - Anonymous Non-Diver
"A brilliant journey with an awesome glimpse into the oceans great escapes. A captivating achievement in bringing the colorful world of underwater sea creatures to life." - Desiree Porter, non-diver
