Scubadiving

Diving is one of my biggest passions, or should I say that I'm impressed by amazing marine life ?

I started diving when I was in my early 20's, done my PADI Open Water Certification in the Netherlands, and meanwhile I'm allowed to call my self a Rescue Diver, with over 200 open water dives logged all over the world, from Cyprus to Cuba, from Bali to Egypt, and lately I dive in the Netherlands too, where the underwaterworld is stunningly fabulous sometimes too.

Meanwhile, I bought an underwater photo camera, and I'm trying to find my ways in making great pictures of the amazing marine life I find during my dives. 

Over 70 % of our planet is water, earth isn't called the blue planet for nothing, you know?  Whereas in the Netherlands it's generally about small fish, I've been in Maldives where I found manta rays, whalesharks, nurse sharks and loads of whitetips during our liveaboard on MS Stingray. In Egypt we find turtles, moray eals and many blue spotted stingrays and the coral is beautiful. Protecting the volnurable marinelife should be on top of politicians agenda, let's hope it will get there as soon as possible. 

                  Travel

Travel has always been a significant part of my life.

I have not been on the road for years, regrettably, but travel always enriches me in many ways.  Some day, some how, some where, I will find the time and opportunity to combine work with pleasure of travelling the world. Until that time, you can find my galeries on the right. I hope you enjoy my photos, if you have any comments, messages or notes to add, feel free to use the contact page below or the comment boxes in my photo galeries.

Nature and landscapes

In this sector of my website, you will find a number of galeries and albums that contain photographs on nature in al its beauty and variety, from mountains to desert areas, both flora and fauna. With my new macro lens I will be experimenting and the results will be published in the near future.
