Photographing the Underwater Aquarius Habitat

Trying to get a good angle for a photo while underwater can be tough when you are working among currents and other distractions, like animal visitors. In this photo, Brian Skerry sits atop a 20 foot high underwater tripod to photograph the Aquarius Habitat off Key Largo, Florida. Skerry lived inside the underwater lab for 7 days.
