'I live in Penshurst Kent, I am 50, a doctor, I have been diving for 12 years. and taking underwater pictures for 3 years. My first underwater pictures were taken with a Nikon Coolpix 3 years ago.

For the last 2 years I have used a Nikon D300 in a Subal housing with Inon strobes. I enjoy land photography as well as underwater photography; I love travel, Jazz and, of course, diving.'
