Underwater Photographers Hit the French Riviera

The 33rd International Festival of Underwater Pictures welcomed local and international representatives of the underwater imagery and art world this week. The setting couldn’t be more inspirational. The multi-million dollar yachts, cobble stone streets and prolific art of Antibes, France were a warm welcome to those who traveled from as far as Papua New Guinea, or in my case, even New York City.

It's a great time had by all in a picture perfect setting. What more can a guy want? Well - unfortunately, yet again I was in a romantic place, by myself, watching couples walking by hand in hand, and missing my other half.

Thanks to Alex Mustard, Peter Rowlands, Jane Morgan, Steve Jones, Michael Aw, David Pilosof, Noam Kortler and gang, and Joaquin from Minahasa Lagoon resort for keeping this New Yorker in good company. A special thanks to Joaquin also for a quick tour of Monaco and Monte Carlo.
