View from the Bridge

On the way to the bridge of Chrisoula K (also known as Tile Wreck), resting at the feet of Abu Nuhas reef in the Egyptian Red Sea. The striking blue light from the water column outside the window contrasted with the utter darkness within the wreck, yet both connected through this single shaft of light penetrating the darkness of the wreck. It provided for a moodiness that expresses the uneasy feeling we exhibit around ship wrecks.
