The images in Sailing Splits where all photograph from the water during the BVI Spring Regatta and other races in the Virgin Islands. The correct term for this photography is half underwater and half above water view. As a diver and image maker I photograph the ocean as a way of life.
When you film whales and sharks for many years you begin to miss those encounters. I realize during a sailing race that by using a wide lens on my Nikon camera and a dome port in my underwater housing I can split the image and capture the action above and below the water line. That means to achieve this I need to be few feet from the sailboat. That gives me the action, the colors, the sounds and interaction between boat and sea.
The moment the edge.
