Raja Ampat - Video- und Fotosafaris

Graham Abbott von Diving4Images ist ein Geheimtipp für Unterwasserfilmer und -fotografen, die in den Zentren der Artenvielfalt in Indonesien das Besondere vor die Linse bekommen wollen.
Ich habe ihn Ende der 90iger Jahre in Wakatobi kennen gelernt, als er noch Manager des Wakatobi Dive Resorts war. Vorher hatte er bei Christiane Muller in Manado eine erstklassige Taucherausbildung abgeschlossen und ist seit dieser Zeit unablässig im indonesischen Archipel unterwegs auf der Suche nach neuen, spektakulären Tauchplätzen.

Vor einigen Jahren hat sich Graham selbstständig gemacht und organisiert von Bali aus Tauchsafaris für Unterwasserfotografen und -filmer.

Weltbekannte Unterwasserfotografen und -filmer waren bei ihm zu Gast. Hier einige Kommentare von bekannten Fotografen und Wissenschaftlern:

Graham Abbott served as our dive coordinator for the 2006 Conservation International expedition to Cenderawasih Bay. I can’t speak highly enough of his uncanny ability to locate excellent dive sites and his extensive knowledge of marine life of the Indonesian region. He is a real bonus for any dive expedition to any destination in Indonesian seas and beyond.

Dear Graham - June 3, 2004
You are a true professional, and an expert in finding critters for professionals like me. I saw more in 1.5 days of diving with you than I saw in 30 days of diving at KBR! Here's hoping that we dive together again soon, and that your enthusiasm & expertise in "Diving 4 Images" never fades! Norbert Wu

I was delighted to have you with us. You are what I call a "civilized" man with all the good components that go into making one. As well, you are a super-fine dive guide with an eye that is a match for Larry's.

Thanks for the help in filming the snake sequence. Adapting to my dive requirements is often not in the mature of other guides. So thanks for the help. I think we have filmed behaviour that has not been documented before, so a first there. I am sure I will be needing your services again so look loward to that. Cheers.

Dear Graham And Dwi
Thank you for taking care of taking on the challenge organganising a fantastic filming trip for the BBC Natural History Unit. I am confident on saying that the sea snakes, jacks and goatfish opf Gunung Api will make the Shallow Seas episode of Planet Earth next year. A very succesful trip to Gunung Api - great diving, great fun and a wonderful opportunity to fully explore a remote island, dive sites and discover new behaviour. Everything has gone very well and despite 1 poor DVD choice (Alien vs Predator) a great time has been had by all. Your knowledge a nd experience has been a real asset to I will definately recommend you to others. Many thanks again.
PS:- Thanks for providing a divemaster with a broad Leeds accent to provide us with extra amusement.
