Underwater photojournalist Brian Skerry has spent the last 30 years documenting the beauty of the ocean and its marine life.
But increasingly his pictures serve another purpose - to highlight the environmental issues of our oceans and waterways.
The US-based National Geographic photographer has worked all over the world, including in New Zealand, and published five books and won numerous awards.
He began diving aged 15, and has described working for National Geographic as a dream come true. Over the years, he has also had a few close calls - like getting lost under polar ice and having to find his way out of a closed hole.
Speaking from his latest shoot location in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, he told Nine to Noon's Kathryn Ryan that New Zealand's approach to marine conservation was ahead of many other countries.
"There's certainly big problems everywhere, but New Zealand, in my estimation, has always been progressive in terms of taking a conservation approach - certainly with the EEZ (Exclusive Economic Zone) and trying to create replenishment zones."
He said the world's oceans were unable to cope with the cumulative effect of climate change (including acidification), pollution and overfishing.
"The oceans are suffering - or dying a death of a thousand cuts," he said.
"The ocean is quite resilient, it is quite vast, it can deal with a lot of things that we do to it - but the culmination, the cumulative effect of all of these things, is showing some serious signs of distress."
Mr Skerry will be visiting New Zealand next month.

New Zealand's first national bee health survey
BODY:
Bees are in trouble and to get a better idea of might be contributing to colony loses, Landcare Research is calling on beekeepers to help with a national survey.
EXTENDED BODY:
Bees are in trouble around the world. In New Zealand, hive numbers are increasing because of growing interest in manuka honey, but even here, there has been a surge in unexplained colony losses.
Last spring, Coromandel beekeepers reported the disappearance of thousands of colonies of bees, reducing their honey harvest by half. Similar losses were reported in the Wairarapa, and the symptoms were consistent with colony collapse disorder, which has been blamed for decimating bee populations in the United States and Europe.
In New Zealand, several factors are blamed for the continued decline in bees, including diseases, pests, pesticides, starvation and overstocking, but to get a clearer idea of the causes, Landcare Research has launched New Zealand’s first national survey of bee health and is asking beekeepers to help protect the $5.1 billion industry.
Pike Brown, the director of the Bee Colony Loss and Survival Survey, says the online survey will gather baseline information about colony loss and survival to track changes in the future. "This is an opportunity for us to use an international standard to start tracking New Zealand's bees so we understand emerging problems for the New Zealand industry."
The survey adheres to international standards to allow for worldwide comparison. However, he says, it has been tailored to the needs of New Zealand beekeepers by including references to food sources such as manuka, and certain New Zealand-specific techniques to treat and monitor the Varroa mite.
This is a New Zealand specific survey, even though we allow for international comparisons. We have problems with habitat loss, we have increasing honey bee pests and diseases, there have been pollen shortages and bee malnutrition that stem from the shortage of declining floral resources, and I think that many would argue that pollination services that are provided by bees are not recognised. By starting to enter data into a survey like this and follow trends over time we'll be better able to understand the importance of bees and also how better to protect them.

All survey participants are assured of the confidentiality of their involvement. You can find some background about the survey, and a link to it, here.
Meanwhile, Australian researchers and the US computer company Intel have launched a high-tech collaboration to investigate bee health.
Intel is contributing the Intel® Edison Breakout Board kit, a customisable platform that is only slightly larger than a postage stamp, which will be distributed worldwide in the form of a bee micro-sensor kit as part of the Global Initiative for Honey bee Health.
The sensor will be placed inside beehives to monitor bee activity via tiny radio frequency identification tags that are placed on the bees’ backs. The sensors work in a similar way to a vehicle’s e-tag, recording when the insect passes the checkpoint.
Paulo de Souza, a science leader at CSIRO, says honey bees are essential for the pollination of about one third of the food we eat, including fruit, vegetables, oils, seeds and nuts, yet their health is under serious threat.
He says the data captured by the new sensor kits will provide valuable information to beekeepers, primary producers, industry groups and governments.
“Bee colonies are collapsing around the world and we don’t know why,” he says. “Due to the urgent and global nature of this issue, we saw the need to develop a methodology that any scientist could easily deploy. This way we can share and compare data from around the world to collaboratively investigate bee health.”

Depression Cherry by Beachhouse

EXTENDED BODY:
Nick Bollinger embraces the latest from 'dream pop' protagonists Beach House.
Beach House is the Baltimore duo of French-born Victoria Legrand and Baltimore native Alex Scally, and, you’d have to say they’ve got a sound. They established it with their first album nine years ago, and they have made four albums since of – well, what do you call it? It’s tempting to call it dance music for zombies, but ‘dream pop’ is the critics’ shorthand most commonly used. And it does seem to describe a music dominated by somnolent tempos, slow-cycling sequences of long sustained chords, Scally’s slow-motion guitar lines and Legrand’s woozy, reverb-drenched vocals.
And there is an inherent dreaminess about their lyrics, which frequently invoke the night, wonder about hallucinations, and deliberately favour ambiguity over concrete imagery. If they have a theme, it might be encapsulated in ‘Space Song’, the album’s most straight ahead pop song; a kind of weird marriage between The Cocteau Twins and E.L.O. with a George Harrison-y guitar hook, and a lyric that simply asks, “what makes this fragile world go round?” For ‘Days Of Candy’ song they bring in a small choir, which almost takes over the chordal role of the keyboards behind Legrand’s voice. The effect is majestic, reminiscent of Brian Wilson in his most Smile-era ethereal. And when, towards the end of the track, Legrand sings “the universe is riding off with you”, that’s just what it sounds like.
Songs played: Levitation, Beyond Love, Sparks, Wildflower, Space Song, Days Of Candy

EXTENDED BODY:
Nick Bollinger meanders through the latest from Minnesotan minimalists Low.
Low is another band whose reputation hinges on a sound. They came out of Minnesota, twenty-something years ago, and have since a dozen-odd albums which all have identifiable features in common. But perhaps it’s wrong to call it a sound. It’s more of a tempo. Nominally a trio, with couple Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker its two constant members, Low have experimented with various types of production and instrumentation over the years, from acoustic and hushed to rumbling mountains of amplification. You’ll find both on this latest album, with those sleepy tempos and Sparhawk and Parker’s tightly woven vocals the thread that runs through it all.

Lucky Guy by Delaney Davidson
BODY:
Nick Bollinger settles into the latest southern sojourn from traveling troubadour Delaney Davidson.
EXTENDED BODY:
Nick Bollinger settles into the latest southern sojourn from traveling troubadour Delaney Davidson.
Delaney Davidson has a voice like a man who has been crawling for a week through some Sahara desert of the soul, and is in desperate need of a drink. The Lyttelton troubadour’s latest collection is both typical, with fine examples of all the things he does best, and a little experimental, as the boundaries of the territory he works in are bent and blurred even further than usual. As far as that usual territory goes, that’s perhaps best represented in a number of tunes that show why for three successive years he won the Best Country Song Award in the APRA Silver Scrolls. The other direction Davidson has taken for a number of these songs is a kind of garage pop. These are Lucky Guy’s most upbeat moments, and where the terrific rhythm section of bass player Ben Wooley and drummer Joe McCallum come into their own, clinging to the songs like riders in the devil’s rodeo. And for all the Americana references, there’s something recognisably New Zealand about it all, from the unvarnished Kiwi inflections in Davidson’s singing – a kind of Tex Morton-on-moonshine quality - to his whole number-eight-fencing-wire approach to making records.
