Mark 'Crowley' Russell returns to Sharm El Sheikh for the first time since he hung up his professional fins; Jenny Stock highlights the thrills of a Dauin Splash-in photo competition; father and son David and Abraham Leonard write about their shared bonding in the Galápagos Islands; and Seattle-based marine biologist Bella Zandoná recounts a life-changing experience with a giant Pacific octopus and the charismatic cephalopods of the Pacific Northwest. We also have the Top Five of our Big Shot photo competitions of 2025 and some of the best photographs of basking sharks we've ever seen from Nigel Motyer's new book!
