the underwater photography of bruce mozart

Friday, September 5th, 2008

Bruce Mozert pioneered underwater photography.

In 1938, he was the only person in the world who had a waterproof camera.

Mozert stopped in Silver Springs, Florida, on his way to Miami. He never left.

He built a waterproof housing for his camera and for the next 45 years photographed amazing underwater scenes in the clear waters of Silver Springs.
