Cousteau Diver

This photograph never appeared in Calypso’s Log because it was not in colour. “But,” I explained, “it is in colour because the Cousteau Diver is wearing a silver suit…that’s a colour, the ocean background is grey, that’s a colour, and the stripe on the suit is black. So there are all my colours.” The Captain’s son replied, “You’ve got guts.”
