The Ocean Cleanup - Bridge Crew (Evenings)
Long overdue, but it’s time to post more of the work I documented while out in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch on assignment with @theoceancleanup in Fall 2021. I spent 3 months at sea during two back-to-back shifts. It was long but a highlight of my career and a project I can’t stop thinking about. I dream of getting back out there, which may happen this summer when they launch System 03—slated to be 10x as efficient as the previous system at removing floating plastics from the ocean.
To kick off these posts, I’m highlighting some of my favorite shots of evening work. These are 24/7 operations for 6 weeks at a time, so there’s always a crew working. Fortunately, I didn’t have to work the overnight shifts, but I enjoyed the quiet and peaceful evenings on the bridge once the busy day calmed down. It was always my favorite time to wind down with way too much espresso or Yorkshire tea and focus on backing up footage, editing, and hanging out with the night shift crew.
