Summer 2025 magazine preview

SUMMER 2025 - HIDDEN TREASURES

AS DIVERS, our perspective tends to be pretty tightly focused, so it’s quite easy to lose sight of the wider context of the oceans that surround us. In her award-winning book Blue Machine, physicist Helen Czerski invites us to forge an even stronger connection with the underwater environment.


This summer we explore that deep connection through the hidden treasures of Raja Ampat, the Cement Pier of Barbados and the Mantas of Mexico's Caribbean coast. Plus - a guide to turning the hidden treasures into real money by submitting your work as an underwater photographer to a stock agency.


Best wishes,


Jo Caird, Editor

A DIVE INTO THE UNKNOWN

Raja Ampat is one of the world's most sought-after diving destinations but it's far from being completely explored. Award-winning photographer Jenny Stock dives into the unknown as she visits previously undiscovered spots on board the Raja Ampat Aggressor, accompanied by some of her fantastic photography of never-before-seen reefs.

SAVING MEXICO'S MANTAS

The Caribbean coast of Mexico is home to one of the world's largest aggregations of whale sharks - and a gathering of giant manta rays follows them. Mark 'Crowley' Russell talks to Karen 'Manza' Fuentes about her determination to make sure their populations are preserved, and why they may well be the long-awaited third species.

OCEAN PHYSICS

Helen Czerski began studying the science of bubbles at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography when she realised she needed to learn to scuba dive - and fell in love with it. She talks to Jo Caird about combining her passion for the underwater world with a background in physics in her award-winning science book Blue Machine: How the Ocean Shapes Our World.

MULTI-DISCIPLINE DIVING

Some underwater photographers prefer macro over wide-angle; others big fish or landscapes. Each takes time to learn and perfect, but diving under the Cement Plant Pier in Barbados provides photographers with a single site to practice them all. Award-winning photographer Catherine Holmes gives us her top tips for study and some stunning results of her own.

UNDERWATER EARNINGS

Lots of people love taking pictures underwater. Most people will only ever see their pictures shared among social media friends - but can you earn an income from sharing them with the world? Colin Marshall shares tips from his 30-year history as a stock agency photographer.

SPEAKING OF PHOTOGRAPHERS...!

While there some talented amateurs out there among the underwater photo pros, many, many divers pick up a camera and turn into nightmares with bubbles. Mark 'Crowley' Russell shares some of his experiences from his time a full-time dive professional, and what steps divers need to take before ever even thinking about taking snapshots!

BIG SHOT TOGETHERNESS

DIVE’s latest Big Shot underwater photography competition called for images of underwater animals living together - in harmony or, as the case might be, not. Check out the best of the entries from our Big Shot Living Together photo competition as they were meant to be seen - on the pages of a glossy print magazine..
