Wild Underwater World

04 Oct 2023

From September 28 to December 3, the State Darwin Museum in Moscow offers an exhibition of underwater photography. For eight years in a row, the Wild Underwater World Festival has been held annually in the capital and other cities of Russia, where professional underwater photographers show a total of 100 underwater photos taken in different reservoirs of our planet.

In the pictures, you can see tiny nudibranchs or clams in detail, admire the majesty of giant whales, discover creatures that you have never seen before, look into the mouth of perhaps even too toothy sharks, admire the grace of disheveled jellyfish, and just look into such a mysterious and still not fully explored underwater world. Each photo must be signed by the author, so that visitors of the exhibition will be able to learn not only the name of the frame and the photographer's last name, but also the history of creating the photo, a curious fact about the main character of the picture or technical details of underwater photography, which is especially valuable for novice photographers.

Everyone who is close to and interested in the underwater world is welcome at the festival, and children have been and still are especially welcome guests during all the years of the exhibition. So a visit to the exhibition can be a great family event.

You can find out more about the exhibition and the conditions for visiting it on the website of the State Darwin Museum https://www.darwinmuseum.ru/projects/exhibition/ix-festival-podvodnoj-fotografii-dikij-podvodnyj-mir

And on February 10, 2024, on the stage of the Moscow Dive Show, Mikhail Kutuzov, director of the Wild Underwater World festival, will sum up the results of the festival for the year, share plans for the tenth anniversary festival and traditionally hold an award ceremony for the best underwater photographers in the country.
