Announcement: Onderwaterfoto.net will temporarily stop with updates!
After 4 years we decided to temporarily stop with publishing news items and the Photo of the Week contest. It is too hard to combine our day to day jobs and the upcoming birth of our son with the maintenance and updates on this website. But in the future we will be back and maybe with something completely different, like a video website for underwater videography. The website will stay online, so you can still enjoy the beauty of our underwater images. The Gallery will be updated from time to time and feel free to send us pictures so you can have your own online underwater photography photoalbum. We would like to thank everybody we met during our dives in the Netherlands and abroad. We had some great moments underwater and encountered very special marine life. From Seahorses and Nudibranches to Whalesharks, Dolpins, Manta Rays, Schooling Hammerhead Sharks and even an Orca!
Thank you all very much for your support in the past and hope to see you all soon!

A new edited video has been uploaded to the Vimeo gallery. Unfortunately it was not possible to upload it in the video gallery on Youtube because the video exceeds the length of 10 minutes. Vimeo is a great website! You can even upload in Full HD. But I don't have a plugin for our CMS website. The video is fully edited with music and gives a small impression of the dives we made during our vacation to Lanzarote, part of the Canary Islands. So sit back and enjoy the video. You can post your comments if you want.
