| Horacio Alfano - Photographer PO BOX 416408 Miami Beach, FL 33141 Falling in the blue depths, being surrounded by a school of jacks and barracudas, listening to the songs of whales and dolphins, watching the elegant dance of a manta ray, silently escorting a whale shark or playing with a sea lion: these experiences produce emotions that can never be forgotten, as well as the dance of a tiny goby or the pastel hues of soft coral. Curiosity makes me wait patiently for marine creatures to go on with their business; patience and knowledge are the underwater photographer's best allies. Patience rewards with unrepeatable moments. Knowledge makes one focus on the important elements, and allows one to foresee what is about to happen. Perhaps there's a third eye that makes you watch in the right direction or helps you make the decision that will result in the best shot. All the planning, thinking, concentrating, and waiting are not difficult for me; it is a labor of love. Underwater photography represents the ultimate love affair with nature: it is an opportunity to represent the creativity of nature in a personal expression of art. Horacio Alfano |
