Notes From the Judges
Congratulations to all the winners, and to all the contestants for your excellent works. It is an honor to serve as a judge for this year’s Sultan Mizan Underwater Photography Awards. It is through this wondrous opportunity that I managed to see the astounding underwater photos of the beautifulTerengganu seas, taken by professionals and passionate amateurs alike.
The Macro and Wide-Angle submissions had many eye-catching works, fueling my curiosity for the diverse and rich waters in this area. Likewise, through these beautiful underwater photos, the world can see the beauty of the ocean.
