 Portraits of Planet Ocean: The Photography of Brian Skerry
 Natural History Museum
Summer 2013 
Brian Skerry may have just about the best office in the world. It's beautiful, quiet and big, as in 70 percent of the Earth big. That's because Skerry is a photojournalist who spends most of his time exploring the oceans. Go deep-sea diving with Skerry with 20 of his stunning photographs, now on view in the Natural History Museum's Ocean Hall.
