Hi from Australia

Posted August 24, 2024Aug 24

Great to see Waterpixels going so well.

As for the introduction bit: I am based in Tasmania off southeast Australia and mostly use Nikon D850 and D7200 underwater. Tasmania and the other cooler bits of Australia have some amazing diving but I also like to travel and have done a lot of dives in Canada, UK and Solomon Islands - Jon
