BLOG about cave diving

I just spent a week diving in caves guiding a good friend from New Mexico, USA, Mr. Cliff Atkinson. Cliff is a very interesting person, he is a lawyer and adventurer at the same time, who travels around the world with guides like me but in different disciplines, it is always a joy when it comes because we do not only talk about diving but many topics in general of life and especially of their trips. In the mornings we dive in caves and at night we celebrate our friendship in

It all started with making a promosion similar to the one I saw in 1999 on tv. and he helped me make the decision and certify me in cave diving in the year 2000. I go back to the year 1999 and I tell you, that one night in the room of my apartment in the city of Cancun relaxed after an arduous day of work,

Great day at Jardín del Edén with Danny Fugate and Pablo Gamba! After 3 hard days of IANTD DPV cave course, today the kids have time to enjoy and practice what they have learned on the program. As usual, I take my camera and take some pics. Training is the key to improve one's diving skills. Cave diving needs hard work and it is unbelievably rewarding and beneficial for all of us. #sidemount #undewaterphotography #Mexico #sidemount #caves #cenotes #cavediving

Today as always is a good day to cave dive in Mexico, and I take my camera with me and 4 strobes, two for my camera and other 2 strobes with slave sensor to place in the cave and provide me more field of depth. My friend and colleague Pablo help me modeling for the camera, we did not penetrate too much into the cave, it was not necessary to go far from the entrance, this cave is super decorated from the beginning to the end and with different scenarios. I been in this c
