My sincere condolences to Marcus's family. Met Marcus on the Oceanics trip earlier this year, quiet and reserved, and we had some great conversations. He was also a rising star in the medical field.

A real shame to hear. Condolences to family and friends

Another sad day for divers and Photographers ... Condolences to all who new him

Dive safe

RIP Marcus. Sincere condolences to his family. Marcus was a popular member of last summer's Wetpixel Oceanics trip in the Bahamas. He certainly had an eye for a great subject - I appear twice in one of his split level shots! I particularly remember some of the images he produced of the sharks right at the surface.

We discussed putting a front page post about his death to allow those who knew him to post their thoughts, but we heard that his family did not want the publicity at this horrible time. I think that a thread in the forums will be fine.

My condolences go out to the family and friends.

I also hope that those who had to witness his death are coping with it.

It is hard- a good friend of mine died 5 days after drowning and being resuscitated last month in Egypt.

May Marcus rest in peace.

Rebreather accident I heard.

Poor chap. He visit us quite often and we have some of his wonderful UW photos on the wall What a pity.

Didn't know him but a shame to hear of his loss and the

loss of a young father and husband.
