Marine photographer Kurt Arrigo has captured the charm that happens when one sets sail on breathtakingly blue waters. Since the artist spent his childhood on the European island of Malta, he’s always been surrounded by the sea. For over ten years, Arrigo has traveled the world taking photos of yachting events, underwater scenes, and luxury boats. His photos are, in one word: astonishing. Each photo evokes the salty smell, flavor, and feel of the ocean.
“One needs to find the right balance between what is going on,” explains the photographer. “What I am trying to capture tends to happen in bursts of emotion.”
Eventually, Arrigo’s work will make you need the oceanic freedom that’s synonymous with sailing.
