A photographic celebration of the spectacular drama of exotic marine
creatures' lives and the otherworldly beauty of the deep-sea ecosystems
that shelter them.
Written and photographed by Emmy award-winning
couple Michele and Howard Hall, Secrets of the Ocean Realm is more than
just a collection of stunning photographs: it is a revelation of the
sea creatures' complex and mysterious cycles and patterns of behavior.
The reader is presented with striking images of all manner of marine
life—sharks, opalescent squid, molting lobsters, dolphins, giant
whales—engaged in the vital activities of mating, threat displays,
hunting and feeding.
Based on a five-part series of public
television specials, the remarkable photographs of Secrets of the Ocean
Realm are complemented with fascinating and engaging stories that take
the reader behind the scenes and reveal the state-of-the-art equipment
and techniques used to capture these exquisite scenes of underwater
life.
