There is an excellent article on Eric Cheng, Wetpixel's fearless leader, in the current issue of Digital Photo Pro.

Posted Image

The article is written by Ty Sawyer, editor of Sport Diver and is a great read:

And whether it’s notes of music, a passion for conservation, the technical inventiveness or a combination of all these elements that lift Cheng’s images above the top underwater shooters today, there’s an enviable depth to his photography.


Check it out HERE.

You're not kidding it's a great read. Ty Sawyer seems to state quite eloquently what many of us already knew :)
