Hi, Ocean people

Posted August 2Aug 2

I'm from the south of Germany and love to dive with good people and my camera :)

Not much to say 'bout me

I'm looking forward to meeting nice people here and perhaps somewhere in the world in "real time".

Afterhours Magic: An Ambient Light Video Workflow for Action Cams (and Other WB-Challenged Cameras) INTRODUCTION Getting good colours in underwater footage, especially when shooting in ambient light, has been a challenge since the early days of underwater cinematography, and action cameras are no exception. As divers learn in their certification course, water absorbs light unevenly, with longer wavelengths like reds and oranges fading quickly as depth increases, leaving underwater scenes dom

Fibre Optic Cables: Keeping them Happy and Firing
Fibre Optic Cables: Keeping them Happy and Firing
TimG · August 5Aug 5

Mafia Island: a diving destination away from the tourist crowds but rewarding for UW photographers
Mafia Island: a diving destination away from the tourist crowds but rewarding for UW photographers

Architeuthis · July 25Jul 25

Mafia Island is located in the Indian Ocean, off the East African coast of Tanzania. I learned about Mafia Island from reports of several scubadivers in internet platforms, who consider it an “insider tip”. In November/December 2024 three divers (Lisi, Franz and me) set out towards Mafia in order to experience firsthand the diving and possibilities for UW-photographers.
