"Team Solomon"
Pier won a 6 night dive package in Komodo, Indonesia with Solitude Liveaboards
The Story: The Solomon islands are a special place - beyond pristine reefs and world-class diving, they are one of the few places where there is a community of local tribes and population scattered throughout the archipelago. I have wanted to capture the Solomon essence, of great coral reefs and incredible inhabitants. It almost seems the kids learned to paddle before they walk. While diving, I noticed above canoes where following my bubbles, it was the end of the day…so here was my opportunity capture the protrait of these kids in their environment - the canoes, the reef, and a stunning sunset as the backdrop.
