Blue

The sardines in Moalboal, Philippines are an unknown phenomenon. We are 10m below the surface, it gets exhausting quickly on one breath. You lose light the deeper you go, visibility changes, the marine life is on its own clock - the possibilities are infinite, both the greatest and the missed takes.
