  • An enthusiastic diver. I love big pelagics, macro & the odd wreck. I'm a PADI master scuba diver & love spending time in my happy place, nothing is more wonderous than being surrounded by the rich colours and movements on a reef. I'm a keen photographer & videographer - I love getting close to the action and sharing what I shoot to share my love and passion for the Ocean. I hope that this helps to champion the protection of the environment and wildlife which I have had the privilege both above and below the seas surface.

    Great Dive Dive from boat over the sea Grass, picked up by zodiac, ended up across the lagoon. Dived with Chris however Lois joined us during the dive after losing the guide. Viz was pretty poor with sand kicked up, Start of dive and found a snake eel almost immediately. After spending sometime with that one found a second not far away/ A Turtle then swam past with two large ramora in tow. After following the turtle found a second turtle and a large blotched ray. We followed that across and then found another turtle. We left that turtle and Chris found a pair of turtles. Managed to get close to several of the turtles while the ate sea grass. We then moved away only to find a Guitar Shark. Spent some time and then followed it for a while. We then went to try and head back towards the boat however e had covered quite a bit of distance. Sent up my DSMB however used my reg and ended up venting after the reg jammed open. Picked up in the zodiac. Great last dive of the liveaboard!!

    Bull Sharks dive, Negative Bouyant entry from boat, dropped onto site and waited for the Bull Sharks to arrive. Was advised to use red filter but this was an error as difficult to edit in post correction. Same dive site (no complaints about that) same group of sharks, this time spent some time looking for Shark Teeth. Octopus, Zebra eels and small fish.
