SCUBA DIVING PHOTOSHOOT IN RAJA AMPAT, INDONESIA

Our bags are packed. In a few days we will be jetting to Sorong, West Papua on the eastern fringes of Indonesia. In underwater photography circles, the Raja Ampat archipelago is the place to be right now in terms of coral reef photography. We have chartered the beautiful Seven Seas live-aboard diving boat for two weeks and are looking forward to diving with friends from around the world. Check back with us in March to see the new photo coverage. We already have a very strong collection of images from Indonesia- Bali, Komodo, Sulawesi, and other hotspots- and we're looking forward to adding dramatic and creative new underwater imagery from Raja.

We invite you to view a slideshow of photos from our last Indonesia expedition on the Seven Seas .

If you'd like to join us on future scuba trips, please let us know. Exciting upcoming charters include the Galapagos Islands, Socorro (The Revillagigedos) off Baja Mexico, perhaps humpback whales, and more.

All the best,

Brandon and Melissa Cole

NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION PANEL OF PHOTO PROS

We are honored by the invitation to join the National Wildlife Federation's panel of photo pros. Visit their popular PhotoZone web feature to ask us questions about photography, digital workflow, gear, nature and wildlife photo hot spots, our specialty underwater imaging, and more. The first question posed to us: Our New Year's photo resolutions!

NWF publishes "National Wildlife" and "Ranger Rick" magazines, two of the top nature and wildlife magazines in the world. We're always delighted to have our marine pictures published in them.

Thanks to the NWF team!
