Schools of fish and caves

Great pictures were offered to me on this diving tour. For the first time in the Mediterranean, it was a real surprise for me to find such a rich underwater world.

It “catches” me over and over again

That moment when the body is completely surrounded by water. The silence. The cool. It is always fascinating for me. These dives between Lipari and Vulcano were no exception.

Es „fängt“ mich jedes mal wieder aufs Neue

Dieser Augenblick, wenn der Körper völlig vom Wasser umgeben ist. Die Stille. Die Kühle. Es ist für mich immer wieder faszinierend. Diese Tauchgänge zwischen Lipari und Vulcano waren dabei keine Ausnahmen.
