This website wouldn't be possible without the support of divers, photographers and of course a lot of resources. Special thanks to those who share their photography with me, you make my articles much more appealing to the eye. I also appreciate those who send in articles to the Thalassophile. If you are interested in spreading the marine love, please submit your articles via the 'Contact me' platform.
