New Underwater Paddlefish Images

Today, we're excited to add more than a dozen new Paddlefish pictures to our online galleries.  Our Jennifer Idol has beautifully photographed these prehistoric fish on a recent diving trip to Tennessee.  Paddlefish populations are in trouble and are rapidly declining due to pollution, overfishing, and habitat loss (often associated with the construction of dams). These fish are becoming rarer every year, so encountering them and photographing them in the wild is becoming more difficult than ever.  To see all of Jennifer's new Paddlefish images, visit our Paddlefish Gallery here.

She’s earned more than 27 certifications and has been diving for 20 years. Her photography and articles are widely published in periodicals such as DIVER, Sport Diver, Alert Diver, and SCUBA Diving. The Lake Murray Wildlife Museum, Jacob's Well Natural Area, and Texas Association of REALTORS feature her work in permanent installations. Her design firm, The Underwater Designer, specializes in design and photography services for water-related themes.
