This webpage presents a selection of my underwater pictures. My name
is Fuensanta Candela Castillo, I was born in Murcia,
Spain, in 1961. I am a lawyer and a biologist. I lived and worked in Brussels
for 30 years as a European civil servant. My job for the last 12 years of my
career was with the Directorate General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries of
the European Commission. I have now left the Commission and moved back to my
native Spain for good (although you never know!). I have been diving since 1992. In November 1998, I earned my scuba
instructor ticket and took right away a year off to teach and divemaster in French Polynesia and the Red Sea. I only
took up underwater photography in 2002 and have been travelling and shooting
as often as I could ever since. During all these years I have been privileged
to enjoy more than a thousand dives in many of the world’s most
beautiful sites. By publishing these galleries on the net, I would like to
bring a glimpse of that great beauty to my visitors. I hope only to share
with all of you my deep love and passion for the sea and its inhabitants, big
and small. Coralrepublic does not represent a professional or
profit activity, but all the images in my galleries are copyright covered. I
