Liquid Light: Photography Beneath the Sea

There is a world beneath the sea unlike anything seen on land. Liquid Light explores these ocean depths with black-and-white photography, capturing a quality of light that exists only underwater. Many of the pieces in the exhibition bring an awareness to the fragile oceans, and the need to protect and preserve them. Visitors will be amazed by the wildlife portrayed in its natural habitat. Manta rays glide through the water, coordinated schools of akule create amazing shapes, and rockfish swim confidently under the waves. These images were selected by Jeanne Falk Adams, daughter-in-law of noted photographer Ansel Adams and former President and CEO of The Ansel Adams Gallery. The collection draws attention to the photographers capturing a stunningly beautiful and mysterious underwater world.
