Upcoming Meetings
Speaker schedule subject to change without notice July 17, 2019, 6:30 pm. Diving at night with special lights unlocks a magical display of colors and patterns that is completely natural but is normally hidden beneath the bright light of daylight. Old dive sites become completely new again - familiar subjects can look totally different, and you can find things you would otherwise miss. This talk will cover the phenomenon of fluorescence, examples from around the world, how to see and photograph it, and implications for the biology of the animals, and for marine biologists. 
Mazel’s underwater fluorescence images were featured in a solo show in MIT’s Strobe Alley and in a two-person show at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington, DC. He has had individual images, from both below and above water, in a curated show at the Joyce Goldstein gallery in SoHo and in juried exhibitions at the Griffin Museum of Photography, the Bedford Public Library, and the Providence Center for Photographic Arts. Residing in Bedford, MA, Charles has a small company, NIGHTSEA, that develops equipment used by researchers, industry, divers, and others to view and document fluorescence. August 21, 2019, 6:30 pm. September 18, 2019, 6:30 pm. General Meetings are held the third Wednesday of each month, at the New England Aquarium Conference Center (located on the first floor of the Harbor Garage).
