and my personal all time favorite.

I saw this exhibit while in New York last May. Of the 20 or so exhibits this was probably the most compelling exhibit that I saw. I didn't buy his book for 60US and that was a mistake I will forever regret. I just started thinking about this recently, and it took me this long to connect the fact that you all probably know who he is and where I might go on the internet to check out more of his stuff. He is truly a master of bw with a human touch. Since seeing his stuff I have been checking out Underwater housings and underwater point and shoots to take similar shots. Simply unbelievable.

Trent Parke dammit

What the hell!!! Have none of you Aussies heard of this genious? Someone say something. Surely a man of this talent hasn't gone completely unnoticed by his own copatriotes!? :x

Someone must have some info. His stuff is glorious!

I have. One of my teachers from Uni got me onto his work, as well as his girlfriends who is also one of her friends, Narelle Autio.. I think that's her name, though I probably have her last name wrong.

Yes yes, they have a book called the Seventh wave, some of the most interesting and compelling underwater shots I've ever seen. Mindblowing stuff. I'm surprised that they aren't better known there. I'm looking into ordering this book.
