Reef at First Light

Dawn patrols over Pacific reefs - the hour when the night shift hands over to the day shift.

Reefs

Reef 1
Depth -8 m
Location West Papua and Hawaii
Season Ongoing
Commissioned by Reef Trust Pacific

The reef changes crews at dawn: hunters coming home, grazers clocking in, and for twenty minutes the light is low, gold and sideways. This ongoing series is shot in that window, one reef at a time, as a record of what healthy still looks like.
