He&#8217;d traveled to Mt. Everest Base Camp, backpacked through India, and even climbed to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro. When an acquaintance asked if he had ever scuba dived, he realized there was an entire underwater world he&#8217;d left unexplored so far and, taking the acquaintance up on his offer for private lessons, quickly became an avid scuba diver. Within just a year of his diving, though, Kevin was already looking for ways to make his new hobby even more exciting. When he saw other divers popping up out of the water with small cameras, inspiration struck him, and he began his new passion: <a href=\"https:\/\/raptureofthedeep.org\/oc-register-underwater-photographer-kevin-lee-recently-dove-antarctica-c2d0189bb20a\">underwater photography<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-4528 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-medium'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/img_2539\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2539-300x169.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"A framed photograph of a black and orange nudibranch.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2539-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2539-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2539-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2539-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2539-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/img_2543\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2543-300x169.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"A framed photograph of a bright pink nudibranch.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2543-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2543-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2543-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2543-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2543-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/img_2547\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2547-300x169.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"A framed photograph of a bright blue nudibranch.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2547-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2547-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2547-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2547-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2547-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>With his high quality camera and expertly assembled underwater camera assembly, Kevin continues to travel the world. His favorite undersea creature to photograph is the opisthobranch\/nudibranch, known more commonly as a sea slug. Frequent visitors to the Onnolee Elliott Library of Science and Technology on the third floor of the Leatherby Libraries are probably pretty familiar with his opisthobranch photos. The six photos just to the left of the service elevator, which were installed in 2012, have recently been joined by six more on the other side of the elevator. Visitors can enjoy photos of opisthobranchs from as far away as the Philippines, Kenya, Korea, Papua New Guinea, or Chile, or as nearby as Laguna Beach.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-4528 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-medium'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/img_2548\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2548-300x169.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Framed photograph of an orange, black, and white nudibranch.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2548-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2548-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2548-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2548-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2548-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/img_2550\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2550-300x169.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Framed photograph of a bright blue and orange nudibranch.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2550-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2550-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2550-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2550-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2550-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/img_2551\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2551-300x169.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Framed photograph of a yellow, black, and white nudibranch.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2551-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2551-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2551-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2551-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/IMG_2551-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>When the first six photographs were installed in 2012, the Leatherby Libraries held a reception to honor Kevin, his photography, and the two Certificates of Congressional Recognition that he received, from the offices of US Representatives Loretta Sanchez and Ed Royce.

A few months before her untimely passing in 2014, Sue received a Doctor of the University degree from Chapman University. In her acceptance speech, she gave Chapman graduates these thoughtful words of encouragement: &#8220;&#8230;whatever you do, please don&#8217;t forget that an important element of happiness is self-respect, so always act with honesty, integrity and compassion toward others.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4536\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4536\" style=\"width: 580px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/2012-03-23_Kevin_Lee_Photos-2012.151.a-23.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4536\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/library\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/67\/2019\/07\/2012-03-23_Kevin_Lee_Photos-2012.151.a-23.jpg\" alt=\"Close-up of a woman posing next to a man.\" width=\"580\" height=\"384\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4536\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kevin Lee, right, with his sister, Sue Kint<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Sadly, Sue passed away before learning that a nudibranch was named for her brother:\u00a0<em>Placida kevinleei<\/em>.
