Imagne visiting a world where the atmosphere is 800 times denser than the air we breath.
Imagine visiting a world where sound travels four times faster than on land.
Imagine visiting a world where some of the animals clone themselves and look like plants.
Imagine visiting a world where the only thing keeping you alive is your life support system.
Welcome to the underwater world
A little about myself and my photography.
My photos enable me to share some of my undersea adventures with divers and non divers alike. In doing so, I hope to show the beauty and majesty as well as the mystery of our worlds oceans. Diving after seven years and logging over 1000+ dives I realized that our oceans are not an inexhaustable resource which we can not afford to squander. Our oceans is something we need to manage conservatably. Our lives and futures depend on this.

This is a cool video
Part 2
What I thought was cool about this video, at the end they show a 6 gill shark encounter. For the last 7 years I have been diving, these sharks come shallow and every year I would encourter these incrediable animals. Bear in mind this isn't shark diving in the tropics. Visability is usually less than 10 feet and sometimes I find myself next to an animal that is big as a car that I didn't know was there. Needless to say, this can really scare the hell out of you!
