Seeing a massive ship lying on the ocean floor is a truly surreal experience. There is just something foreign about leaving the ocean’s surface to find a ship crippled and dead on the bottom. I have had this deep fascination with diving wrecks ever since I first saw the art of Ken Marschall. His visions of these underwater graves are inspiring and his images are haunting to say the least. The sinking of the Texas Clipper took place in November of 2007 off the coast of south Texas. Once the State of Texas lost the USS Oriskany to Florida, local diversREAD MORE

The Guadalupe Mountains are one of the earth’s best examples of an ancient marine reef. Geologists come to these mountains from all around the world to marvel at their natural beauty. Most believe these formations formed approximately 250 million years ago in the geologic period know as the Permian.

Heading southeast along the Moroccan coast just past Tétouan, you will find a beaten down, half visible sign pointing the way to the small village of Chefchaouen or more traditionally, “Chaouen.” This picturesque community is given only modest attention in most guidebooks.

Media Luna or Half Moon Lake is located in the Mexican state of San Luis Potosí in the high semi-arid plateau of the Sierra Madre Oriental Mountains at an altitude of 982 m (3,222 ft). The lake’s warm water 28-32° C (85-88° F) and great visibility 20-30 m (60-100 ft) makes it a perfect place to continue your dive training, gain more diving experience or just to add a new experience to your dive log. And, because of its protected status as a national preserve, the thriving wetlands contain considerable biological diversity for the photographer and naturalist alike. The lake isREAD MORE

About Layne

I studied photography in college at the University of North Texas and developed my skill while specializing in archaeology. Through the recording of historical artifacts, I developed and honed my eye for detail. During graduate school I continued my education in photography by documenting the unfolding stories being uncovered on archaeological sites.I have captured my images in many countries and in many different situations. I love spontaneous events. I love capturing emotion in raw form. I am also an avid scuba diver and therefore underwater photographer.
