Our Judging staff for the 2005 Competition:

Jack and Sue Drafahl

Jack and Sue Drafahl are a husband and wife team of professional undersea journalists, lecturers and multimedia producers. Jack and Sue started their professional photographic careers at Brooks Institute of Photography, Santa Barbara, California. Sue worked as a professional photographer and Jack became an instructor at Brooks and developed the Audio Visual Department.
They both received their diving certification in the early '70s and are Platinum Pro 5000 divers (1996). Jack and Sue were awarded Divers of the Year from Beneath the Sea in 1996. Sue is an inaugural member of the Women Divers Hall of Fame (2000) and now serves as a Trustee.
Sharing their hard-earned knowledge about underwater and digital photography, they have conducted seminars worldwide on all aspects of photography, both surface and underwater. Some of these seminars include various diving conferences: Beneath The Sea, Our World Underwater, DEMA and Scuba Show.


Ernest H. Brooks II

Ambassador to the Marine Environment, Photographer, Adventurer, Diver and Educator Ernest H. Brooks II was born to be a photographer. As the son of Ernest H. Brooks, founder of the internationally renowned Brooks Institute of Photography, Mr. Brooks was destined to follow in his father's footsteps for part of his life's journey before forging his own path. He graduated from Brooks Institute, served on the school's executive staff and in 1971 assumed the office of the president, a position he held until 2000 when the institute was sold to Career Education Corporation, CEC. Throughout his long tenure as the head of Brooks Institute, he carried out the duties that come with that corporate territory including keynote speaking at international conventions, working with national and international organizations and companies to enhance the industry, and encouraging photographic education and promoting photography as a universal language. Along the way, while fulfilling the responsibilities of his office, his achievements earned him numerous accolades and awards.
