Epson World Shootout 2011 Prize

Just found out that I won third prize in the Epson World Shootout Underwater Grand Prix for 2011 for the wide angle category. There were some great entries for this event and I feel privileged to be awarded along side some amazing photographers. you can checkout some of the photos at the World Shoot out website. The shot below was taken in swallows cave in Vava’u Tonga and no matter how many times I come back to Tonga this is always a favourite spot for taking photos. and special thanks to my model Rebecca Hayter for patiently holding her breath so I could capture the light and colour.
