The photos show far more than just blue masses of water and shimmering green lagoons. They document oceans as habitats. They show where the <strong>Human<\/strong> a friendly, where is a ruthless flatmate.<\/p>\n<p>This creates impressive contrasts. One picture shows a salt lake in Australia coloured blood red by millions of microalgae - a natural process. The next page shows the gruesome work of sealers in Canada: the blood of dozens of dead animals seeps into the white ice cover in the Gulf of St Lawrence.<\/p>\n<p>Another photo shows the Raja Ampat archipelago, one of the most biodiverse marine regions in the world.
