Please join us on Wednesday, April 19th at 7:30 pm, at the Natural History Museum (probably in the 2nd floor classroom - follow signs in case location changes), for a presentation by David Borus.

Diving for more than 40 years, David is an explorer, underwater photographer, and publisher of Ocean Geographic USA.
 
From David:
 
Ocean Geographic is the most beautiful ocean magazine on the planet, it is also one of the very best. 
 
Ocean Geographic is created by Michael Aw - one of the world’s most highly awarded underwater photographers, and most productive too. We have a who-is-who is the ocean elite that sit on our Editorial Board, write for the magazine, and sometimes travel with us too. Ocean Geographic is published in Singapore, and the USA. We just turned 10years old as a publication, and are now in our 4th year as an American company. Everything we do in print is exceptionally beautiful.
