Museum Chairman Bradley Wood said he is absolutely thrilled to have the support of VTO. “We’ve been working towards this event for a very long time, so to have the Vanuatu Tourism Office behind us, makes all that hard work extra worthwhile,” he said. “We can’t thank VTO enough for coming on board.”
Adela went on to say, “I take this opportunity to thank the South Pacific World War II Museum and its executive members for giving us the opportunity to be part of celebrating 80th Anniversary of the sinking of SS President Coolidge.”
There is much still to do and we’re working with local businesses to get everything in place. More news on the what’s planned for the commemoration will be released soon.
Following a trip through Latin America, Chris ended up in Australia for what was going to be a quick stop along his journey. However the lure of the Great Barrier Reef turned into a seven year, 5,000 dive odyssey capturing a staggering number of images from the stunning northern stretches of the Reef.
In 2011, Chris moved to Indonesia and travelled all over the Pacific photographing some of the most unique, pristine and extraordinary underwater creatures and seascapes – including that of the SS President Coolidge and Million Dollar Point, here in Espiritu Santo.
Chris’ extraordinary work has been published in many magazines and journals throughout the world. He has also deservedly won 9 international photography awards, and if you visit his website you’ll see why.
Chris has shot over 100,000 photographs, from 56 locations throughout the oceans of the world. His website features many of these in albums to make it easier to find what you’re looking for, and they available for purchase.
The website explains how to get in touch with Chris. You’ll find it at chphotographic.com
Thank you Chris for getting behind the Museum. We very much appreciate your generosity and assistance.
