However, there is one truly unique section: the sunken wall of Panjiakou. A tiny section of about 1.5 kilometers out of a total of 6259 kilometers of fortification lies beneath the water surface of the lake created in course of theRead More →

Even at a tender age, Imran Ahmad loved his camera which took him to a different world. Growing up in Singapore, Imran was surrounded by nature and the sea. His father would always get him books about the Ocean to look at. As his fascination for the ocean grew, the most appropriate thing to do was to infuse photography and his love for the ocean. Soon he developed a motto »Always Searching & Never Destroying« for his company »Escapeinc«. From then, it was always about storytelling through his images. Allowing his lens to speak for him; Imran capture images different from anything seen before. HeRead More →

Walhaie und Mantas zählen zu den bedrohten Tierarten. Im Naturschutz Reservat rund um die Revillagigedo Inseln sind sie geschützt. Hier helfen Sie der Forschung ihre Lebensrythmen und Wanderwege zu ergründen.  divemaster war mit einem internationalen Expertenteam rund um den Meeresforscher Laurent Ballesta tauchen.
