Photo Hall of Fame

If nothing else, we are certainly known for our underwater photographs. Since we like to have a photo inventory of all of our projects, the camera comes with us wherever we go! Now that we have this website, we love sharing our photos with the public, especially those who don't often get to see what goes on underwater. Occasionally we are contacted by various organizations who would like to use our photos to publish in textbooks, make posters, write articles etc. and we are more than pleased to show some examples below. If you are ever interested in obtaining one of our photographs, feel free to contact us and we would love to accommodate you, we just want to make sure we are given the proper photo credit because after all, we are proud of our work!

 

 

The March 2009 issue of Northeast Boating Magazine featured an article titled "Troubled Pastures: The Fight to Save Eelgrass", which included many of our photos and information on our restoration program as well as other programs around the northeast. Photos included shots of Steve Schott collecting eelgrass for restoration, wave-swept eelgrass from Long Island Sound, Winter Flounder in eelgrass, and many others.

The National Estuary Program (NEP) recently used a photo taken by Chris Pickerell at our St. Thomas Point (Long Island Sound) Restoration Site of a winter flounder for their NEP Habitat Protection & Restoration 2008 publication.

This photo of a lady crab was chosen by NOAA for the cover of their 2007 Restoration Center Brochure. It was taken by Kim Petersen at our Cornelius Point eelgrass restoration site. If you look really closely, she was gravid (pregnant).

Porgy in Long Island Sound Restored Eelgrass Meadow


Long Island Sound Study has been an important partner in funding for our program. We are always happy to share photos with them, especially of our restoration work in Long Island Sound. This photo was used on their website to describe our project, and helped to generate many hits onto our website... so I feel it is worthy of the "Hall of Fame". This was taken by Chris Pickerell.
