Islands in the Stream, a photo from American Samoa, Other

Photographer's Note

Ofu Island, The National Park of American Samoa.

Credit Hemingway for the title. I'm not sure if the old man of the sea ever made it to the South Pacific, but I'm sure he would have really enjoyed the Manua islands here in American Samoa. These are some of the most magnificent islands in the world and they are way off the radar of most travelers and photographers.

The owners of Vaoto Lodge have only seen one tourist since we left there in early October! It's a remote and wild South Pacific paradise you can have all to yourself...

Hi Michael,
great one, wonderful place! The different depths and perspectives over and under water are amazing.
As you use the same camera I have to ask what underwater equipment do you use ?
Compliments, Chris

Hi Michael
Superb double picture mixing the mountainy island and the sand underwater. I thought you used an underwater device to protect your camera. Absolute marvelous sea hues.
Well done

Hello Michael,
WOW - great effect. Using the water surface to divide the picture into two parts looks very nice. Very well done.
Have a nice day,
Björn
