I am an Australian-Thai, living and working. I have been scuba diving and taking photographs underwater as my hobby since 2003. I uses a Canon 500D with Sea&Sea RDX-500 Housing, INON Z240 Strobes, Tokina 10-17mm Fisheye for my Wide Angle Photography and Canon 100mm Macro L Lens, Canon 60mm Macro Lens, Sigma 17-70 Macro Lens, Kenko 1.4 Teleconverter and Subsee +10 and +5 for my Macro Photography.

My Passion is Macro Photography and my favourite critter is the Nudibranch. I go on overseas diving trips 3-4 times a year and have been diving in Australia , Norfolk Island, Thailand, Vanuatu, Fiji, Hawaii, Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia, Belgium and Switzerland. My favourite dive site in Australia is Nelson Bay and overseas is Anilao, Philippines.
