    My good friend Andre is a very capable breath hold diver. As I relaxed on SCUBA on the 20 metre bottom of Swallows Cave he swam slowly and gracefully down to me. After giving me the thumbs up he started his ascent. Just as I captured this image his long fins formed an aesthetic shape as if encircling a globe. This must surely be one of the most spectacular places on earth!
