Subject: In case you missed it - Spring 22 print issue preview

Spring '22 print issue preview

Letter from the Editor

Much has changed since our Winter print magazine was issued. The world of travel is almost back to normal, we have a smashing new website, and we are working in the background to deliver more of our content across more platforms.

One thing that hasn't changed, however, is our commitment to bringing you some of the best writing and photography in the scuba diving world. Check out this short preview of what's in store for DIVE this spring, and if you're heading off for some tropical diving for the first time in more than two years - then have fun, but take it easy for the first few days!

Best wishes,

Graeme Gourlay, publisher

Vision is the most important sense that living organisms have evolved, and the organs behind it have developed in similar ways across completely unrelated classes of animals. From simple pinhole cameras to extraordinarily complex compound structures capable of analysing light spectra beyond human understanding, the eyes of underwater critters are as fascinating as the animals themselves. Douglas David Siefert takes a look behind the eyes of some of our favourite fish, together with some outstanding macro photography capturing detailed images of the 'windows to the soul'.

Immersion pulmonary oedema is a potentially life-threatening condition about which little is known among the global scuba diving community, but which may be the number one killer of scuba divers and swimmers. It is predominately associated with high blood pressure, a common condition which many people are not even aware they have. Mark 'Crowley' Russell takes a look at an issue that became all too close to his own heart, and how divers need to learn to avoid it.

An English music producer gentleman and an Australian adventure sports rebel might seem unlikely partners, but between them, Jamie Mayer and Adam Fornasiero built one of Raja Ampat's most successful liveaboards. Alfred Minnaar spent some time working on his inner pirate when he met the duo to learn of Calico Jack's construction by traditional Bugis craftsmen and its next decade sailing through Indonesian waters with its red sails hoisted high..

What does a normal day diving involve? Generally not watching a pack of striped marlin, sea lions and dolphins chasing huge schools of fish - unless you happen to be diving in Baja Magdalena for the sardine run during October and November. Christian Horras spent a most unusual day underwater dodging marlin spikes, and reports on the experience with some phenomenal imagery.

Every diver has that one special place they'd return to time after time if there weren't so many other choices to be made in the scuba diving world. For Jeremy Brown, however, that destination is Bonaire, as he relates to us why the Caribbean island is his favourite scuba diving destination.

Our Featured Photographer series on DIVE's website has become so popular that we are putting out portfolios of spectacular pictures on an almost weekly basis. But photographs are best viewed in print - especially on the high-gloss art-quality paper on which DIVE magazine is printed. Check out some of the best of the best of our Featured Photographers from the last few months.

DIVE Magazine is created with some of the best writing and underwater photography in the world.

We produce four art-quality coffee-table print publications each year, plus an app and webviewer through which you can access all of our latest content and more than 100 of our back-issues in digital format.
