I have been underwater again for too long. Wait...I can't be underwater for too long - especially not regarding current environmental developments.
During the last years, I have witnessed dramatic changes happening in and around the shallow coastal reefs where I am diving daily. I have kept quiet, but now it is time to break the silence.

Finally, I am starting to compile the material, to share it with you and the world out there, so that everyone can see what I have seen over the years.

This first episode is part of a series of short, visually strong videos, revealing the beauty which is left, and the one we might have lost forever.

Watch the first episode of "Into The Reef", let me know what you think, and feel free to share it with anyone you believe should be reminded of what is happening in the ocean today.
