I Love Jacques Cousteau. Inspired by Phoebe Buffay's (Lisa Kudrow) Thanksgiving confession in FRIENDS Season 6, Episode 9: The One Where Ross Got High.

Fabien Cousteau sits mid water amongst the Mission 31 team.

Almost like a fairy-tale, Fabien Cousteau returns to Sudan with his film crew and the area of the magical and mystical "Conshelf".

The last of a series of works documenting Fabien Cousteau's Mission 31 to visit Precontinent II in Sudan...

The iconic Steve Zissou hat

In 1963 - six aquanauts lived 10 metres down in the Red Sea, at Sha’ab Rumi off Sudan - in a sea-urchin shaped house (or habitat) for 30 days. The undersea colony was supported with air, water, food, power, and all other essentials of life, from a large support team above. Conshelf Two is documented in Jacques Cousteau's 1964 documentary film "World Without Sun".

A videographer often 'billies up' with a photographer - working in tandem. Here Matthew Ferraro (Foreground) and Fabien Cousteau (background) shoot in 'high definition film' and 'large file format' photo.

"The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever." is a part of my sea photography collection. Hope you enjoy it!

Marbled paper educational diagram of the layers of the sea and their depths. Did you know that more have been to the moon than the Hadal zone? Nevetheless, human litter, such as plastic bags has been found there...

If you've got salt in your bones and want to explore the ocean depths, you may just be a marine biologist. Celebrate the deep blue sea with this design.

Underwater film-making sometimes is less random than one would expect. Selecting shots for sequence, takes time, sometimes dedicated days are allocated to critters and specific species - awaiting for your turn to film and capture footage - means mid water stops are necessary - both for stills and moving footage. Here Fabien Cousteau (stills) and Matthew Ferraro (film) create a Mission 31 special...

In the times of Jacques Yves Cousteau during the era of Pre-continent II (Conshelf II) it was probably a thought that crossed many of the undersea working divers whilst submerged at depth... So as not to confuse, not too far from the undersea habitat, they built a tool shed which housed the items that they needed for underwater work... Whilst at such a nostalgic place of underwater exploration, as I took this shot, this entered my head... that the chap coming out of the empty tool station, would be 'quite dismayed to not find the itinerary of tools required' - to do the job...!
