SEAN & CIGDEM COOPER     Sean has been diving since 1997 and left the grind of the UK's               IT industry for Sharm el-Sheikh in 2004. He owns and manages a dive   center in Naama Bay and has a passion for underwater photography.   Cigdem studied radio/television in Istanbul, but fell in love with Sharm   during several visits and now works as a freelance photographer.    The couple hopes to encourage people to explore the   underwater world and see that it's about more than just fish.

MULJADI PINNENG SULUNGBUDI     Pinneng got certified in 2004. He fell in love with the Alor's         underwater   beauty when he dived the famous site Kal's Dream for   the first time.      Only two months later, he bought his first underwater camera and   never went diving without one again. His images have won him   several national and international awards.   Pinneng strives to bend the rules of underwater photography to allow     everyone to view Indonesia's uniqueness in new and inspiring ways.

KRISTINA VACKOVA   Kristina, a self-proclaimed workaholic, gave up her company in the     Czech capital Prague for a life as dive instructor in Dahab, Egypt - the   most beautiful place on Earth, she finds.    She fell in love with the place and scuba diving when she completed     her Open Water course in 2007 and only started taking underwater   photographs during a dive holiday in the Maldives in 2011. Kristina       currently uses a Canon G12 PowerShot and hopes to buy a   professional underwater photography system soon.
