Beauty and the Beasts
Becky will return in the evening to entertain us at the UMSAT Show evening banquet. Becky has over 19 years of dive experience logging thousands of hours underwater. Her experience working in remote locations around the world and facing the challenges of filming in extreme environments has earned her a reputation of producing quality images in challenging situations. Through her many experiences Becky has had the opportunity to dive with numerous species of sharks, a few of which include Whale Sharks, Lemon Sharks, Tiger Sharks, Reef Sharks, Hammerheads and Great Whites. For many of the encounters there were no cages, no chain-mail, only cameras to document the sharks. As an avid photojournalist, Becky will tell us stories of her efforts to photograph these amazing animals in their own environment. Please register to join us for a fine dinner and the wonderful opportunity to hear from this talented photographer and passionate shark diver!
