Scuba diving is a fascinating hobby. I first started whilst I was still a student, at first with the diving organisation CMAS, where I took the BREVET * exam and further BREVET **. In 1995 I changed to SSI and there I progressed to become a MASTER DIVER. My favorite places for diving are Corsica, Sardinia, Elba and Croatia and for a while I also dived in caves in a charming area of Upper Austria called "Oetscher" and near the Mira waterfalls in Lower Austria, but a lack of suitably experienced diving partners made the sport unnecessarily risky for me and so I gave it up.
For
some time I have also had an interest in underwater photography and now
use a Nikonos 5 with Morris-flash - and macro equipment.Do
take a look at the photo galleries of the different diving venues!
In
May 1993 I put on a slide-show in the great hall (AUDI-MAX) of Vienna's
Technical University, entitled "Corsica: Adventures underwater".
On
Nov 20th and 25th 1998 I also put on a slide-show entitled "Caribbean,
Leeward Islands".
If you want to get more information to the Caribbean slide-show and about further multimedia projects please follow the link http://move.to/diaschau or http://www.diaschau.at.tt. I'm sorry the page is only available in german yet. There are still further projects in progress. For more information please contact me via e-mail.
I have
also had articles regularly published in MEGADIVE, Austria's leading Scuba
diving magazine. (See MEGADIVE NR. 5, article: "Corsica, juwel of the Mediterranean",
see MEGADIVE NR. 14, article: "Scuba Diving at the Internet, in an Austrian
Way"). It's a pity the magazine doesn't exist any more.
