BOOK REVIEWS




“Iridescent color, and a remarkable sense of artistic composition distinguish this beautiful conceived work, bravo!”

– Carl Roessler, Underwater Photographer, Author of 8 underwater photography books.



“Richard, I’m sitting in the SCUBA Diving Hall of Fame enjoying your book today. Very compelling. I love the way you’ve taken a single topic albeit one of great biodiversity and made that your emphasis. The format is elegant, as befits the subject matter. Visual Index, lovely addition to book designs. Richard I have a sense this is a culmination of a life’s work, of which you should be very proud, Congratulations.”

– Stephen Frink, Underwater Photographer



“Richard faithfully illuminates the vivid colors and camouflage around our wondrous underwater forest.  Inside these covers you will meet face-to-face many of our brilliantly attired friends. In presenting this glimpse of our kelp kingdom, Richard not only keeps the faith of the Brooks Institute of Photography, but also raises the photographic standard to the next level.”

– Leslie Leaney, President of the Historical Diving Society



“...his delicious color moves, expressively enhancing the palette of undersea life. California Sea Hare is a fluid study in orange and green, while the ultra-shimmery texture of Pacific Jack Mackerel finds a teeming, glittering school of fish, visualized as a kind of iridescent swarm. With images like these, Salas keenly melds oceanographic and aesthetic passions.”

– Josef Woodard, News Press Correspondent
