U/W photographer since 2001. Started with Sea & Sea Motormarine II, switched to digital in 2008. Now using Nikon D750, Ikelite housing and Easydive Leo3 housing, DS161 and DS160 strobe, Nikon lenses.
In July 2023 my Nikon was out for repair. I was lucky that Lynn Funkhouser was so kind to sell her TG-6 set to me. With that TG-6 I won the 2023 Compact Class Award during Dive7 in Dauin/Zamboanguita, Negros Oriental, Philippines.
> 1900 dives all over the world in 26 countries. My favorite places: Fakarava South Pass, Galapagos Isla Wolf, Philippines.
