Description - Ocean Soul by Brian Skerry
National Geographic's single retrospective in 2011 by Brian Skerry, revered underwater photographer and author of some 20 National Geographic magazine articles, coincides with a mission-based, National Geographic Society-wide program to restore the health of our oceans. This high profile, multi-year, global initiative for marine conservation will be a major focus in many National Geographic media platforms and of a broad spectrum of partners who have joined National Geographic in a collaborative effort to- inspire people to care and act, reduce the impact of fishing, and promote the creation of marine protected areas.
Ocean Soul is a love story. It is a story of discovery. It is a story of hope.
The story begins when a boy who loves the sea attends an event with underwater photographers and has an epiphany- "I had always wanted to explore the oceans, but I now understood how I would do this. I would do it with a camera." With sheer deter-mination, hard work, and a little bit of luck the boy, named Brian Skerry, realized his dream with more than 20 awe-inspiring articles for National Geographic magazine. Now, with Ocean Soul, he showcases his stunning photography and describes his adventurous life in a gripping portrait of the ocean as a place of beauty and mystery, a place in trouble, and ultimately, a place of hope that will rebound with the proper attention and care.
