Two Worlds

The first major book in two decades by the pioneering underwater photographer, beloved as the 'Audubon of the sea'.

The ocean covers more than seventy percent of our planet, and yet we rarely glimpse its depths and especially its exquisite beauty as documented by legendary photographer David Doubilet. His work in and on water has set the standard for decades. In this remarkable collection, Doubilet unites life above and below the water s surface. I want to create a window into the sea, he says, that invites people to see how their world connects to another life-sustaining world hidden from their view.
