         ME (2)

         Several years after the first photograph taken by a Thai has been published, the Thai diving society had begun to rise. Second, third and fourth photographs gradually appear. Among those, there was one underwater photograph, which I esteemed as top class, not only taken by Thai photographers, but also by any photographers in the world.

         The photograph shows two Manta rays swimming in circle, one nearer the other further away. Point of view and composition are perfect, taken by the skill and endeavor of Khun Nut Sumontamae.

         I am an underwater photographer, knowing well how much time and effort it takes before accomplishing the first rate photograph. For this photo, I have never asked Khun Nut how long he waited. Sometimes it might be a lifetime, like what I am waiting for now.

         There is no doubt why this photo has been published time and again in the T.O.T magazine and other magazines. No matter how many times it is published, this photo is still highly rated.

         This is the second time I know that the Thai can do it.
