From Sunday Morning 10 August 2014
David Doubilet began snorkeling at age eight and by age 12 he was taking underwater pictures on a Brownie Hawkeye camera stuffed into a rubber anesthesiologist bag. He’s gone on to become one of the world's most celebrated underwater photographers – publishing nearly 70 National Geographic stories since his first assignment in 1971.
