Hi from Timor-Leste. Originally from Raglan in New Zealand, I'm currently assigned to Dili with the United Nations.

Fortunate to have some weekends free to check out arquably the best shore diving in the world. Caught the photo bug from helping guiding Hendra Tan on this countries first underwater photography compettion and people like Nigel Thompson (aka Mr. N Branch). Feedback from this site has been amazing and really encouraging for a newby.

I dive with Wayne from Freeflow Diving based in Dili and cover all of the sites in the area, my favourites being the harbour, Marble and Bobs Knob. We debrief next door to Freeflow at the Nautilus 'House Reef' bar.

I use a Cannon S90, Fisheye Fix housing, and two Sea & Sea YS-110 strobes. Mainly macro (have developed a liking for all things nudibranchia and hippocampus). Hoping to get into some wide shots. Definitely wrecks vis allowing and the occasional Dugon.

See you in Timor-Leste!
