“I have many friends. Fish follows me when I dive, it’s like an underwater family gathering”
~ Chris Pham, Founder of Rumblefish Adventure VietnamPut your phones down and make friends the old school way - by showing up and saying hi, except do it underwater this time. Friends? Who Are They? is a curated showcase featuring the work of three budding underwater photographers. Through their captivating photos, you will delve into the hidden lives of these marine creatures, experiencing their emotions and interactions with their environment and the curious humans who visit them.
These photos aren't just beautiful; they are the result of countless hours spent navigating strong currents, low light, and the unpredictable ocean. Patience is everything.
These fleeting underwater friendships, often lasting just seconds, hold a profound connection between diver and sea life-a silent understanding. Each photograph invites you to form your own connection with them and realize how fragile this friendship is as they face growing threats to their survival.
For divers, this exhibition is a nostalgic return to the deep blue. For aspiring divers, it's a powerful invitation to dive in and join a community committed to protecting these ecosystems.
Come discover the underwater friendships usually out of sight and be inspired to help keep them alive.
