Principal designer and owner of City Aquarium, Justin Muir recently took some time off to go diving with sharks! Justin joined shark biologists in Roatan on an exciting expedition to study local sharks. Although certainly not everyone's idea of a relaxing vacation, the dive went well and without a single snag, er, bite.

Signing off,

My dear friend Stephen Olivier lives in Brooklyn and has been painting all his life. I have several of his pieces now, one of which hangs over my fireplace.

Olivier's branches and swarms, informed by his father's experience with renal disease and dialysis, seems captured from a toxic forest in a state of radiant life. Tiny swarms sketched on wood panel grow into blooms of milk and acid encased in watery resin. He explored themes of emergence, transformation, and loss, carefully layering the paint into distinct new species.

Al has been a long term client here in New York City. Once a very successful Hedgefunder, Al has now embraced his real passion.... Wildlife Photography. Ever since I have known him he has always had the fancy cameras and now he has put them into use. Vinjamur has been fascinated with sharks, so much so that he wanted to move to the burbs so he could build a million dollar shark tank. We came pretty close to that at one point. He has been diving and photographing these amazing creatures for the past 10 years now. 

His work with the Katmai Bears, the Lemon Sharks, and the Polar Bears shows the versatility of his work. I am always drawn to his aquatic photographs, but I am down with the land and air animals. I was happy to see the American Bald Eagles back in such large numbers. Al is leaving for Botswana and South Africa in Aril 2008 to photograph Leopards and other wildlife.
