Ocean Armor

You must go to this site! http://oceanarmor.org/

Perhaps the coolest concept I have ever seen to promote the protection of animals that desperately need it.  I would love to see more of these pieces created and I definitely want to see the display whenever it gets scheduled for a location I can make the trip to.  And you must go to this site

These are the folks responsible for this cool site that you must go to!

Mark Laita
Matt Cobleigh
Louis Pieper
Stopp - Webb Production
Morphonics - Music Production

I would like to say that I am not part of this effort nor receiving any money from them.  I will be donating in the very near future and paying to see the exhibit when its booked but I am in no way affiliated with the work.

I am moved by the website alone.  Thank you so much for sharing it.
