Shining a light in the Underworld (Xibalba, as the Mayans call the center of their culture and mythology), these stunning images from diver and award-winning photographer Martin Broen transport us into a place that few cave divers can reach a world accessed from cenotes, water- filled gateways to labyrinths of tunnels that create the longest underwater cave systems on the planet. Over several years and multiple diving expeditions, Broen has captured over 250 different cenotes and caves, diving through mazes of pitch-dark tunnels and bringing photographs from his explorations back to the surface. Paired with images of startling otherworldly beauty, Broen s engaging text guides readers through the depths of the mysterious Yucatan cenotes that have taken millennia to form: from dramatic sinkhole entrances to caverns filled with rainbow-colored stalactites and stalagmites; from the caves formation and spectacular features to the time capsules of ancient fossils; from how cenotes were a source of life for ancient peoples to their critical environmental role today as a life sustaining component for the region. With contributions based on their own experiences in cenotes by National Geographic photographer Paul Nicklen, as well as leading underworld photographer and marine ecologist Alex Mustard, this volume beckons divers, cavers, and armchair explorers to explore a uniquely dangerous yet beautiful and essential underwater world.

SeaLegacy co-founder, National Geographic photographer, acclaimed ocean conservationist, and TED Talks favourite, Paul Nicklen traces his extraordinary love affair with the polar regions in his most recent book, Born to Ice. His powerful images of iconic arctic and antarctic wildlife and scenery, coupled with his inspiring photographic storytelling, blends ethereal beauty of the icy landscape with a compelling call to action. The Arctic is in Paul Nicklen’s blood. Born and raised on Baffin Island, Nunavut, he grew up in one of the only non-Inuit families in a tiny Inuit settlement amid the ice fields, floes, and frigid seas of Northern Canada. At an age when most children are playing hide-and-seek, he was learning important lessons on survival; how to read the weather, find shelter in a frozen snowscape, or live off the land as his Inuit neighbours had done for centuries. Today, Nicklen is a naturalist and wildlife photographer uniquely qualified to portray the impact of climate change on the Polar Regions and their inhabitants, human and animal alike.Whether he is diving off the floe edge in the Canadian Arctic or sitting on a piece of glacial ice in Antarctica to scout for leopard seals, Paul Nicklen goes to great lengths and depths to secure his award-winning images of life in the polar regions. This National Geographic-featured photographer and conservationist never shies away from extreme and challenging conditions as he feels urgently compelled to connect a global audience to the species and ecosystems he cares so deeply about.One of the world’s most acclaimed nature photographers, Nicklen focuses on marine wildlife and polar environments. For Nicklen, we must act now to save Earth’s delicate ecosystems and the precious diversity of life. Combining some of his most extraordinary photographs with personal experiences — learning and inspirational — this stunning Paul Nicklen photo compendium is both a remarkable collection of nature photography and a passionate rallying cry to stand up, have a voice, and enact positive change for our planet.Text in English, German and French.
