Photojournalist Brian Skerry literally "lived on the seabed", when several months traveling on a fishing boat. He traveled all over the row - by snowmobiles to canoes and helicopters.
Skerry specializes in underwater photography and photo on the marine theme. His latest project - November edition «National Geographic» - brought him into the waters off the coast of Japan.
