About Marc Van den Broeck
Biography,
I live in Merchtem-Belgium and have been working as an independent physiotherapist for more than 40 years. During my internship as a student kiné in Israel 1978, I came into contact with diving during a week-end trip to Eilat on the Red Sea. This diving experience never went out of my head and in 1992 I started my diving education. I wanted to share so many beautiful and special things I discovered underwater with my friends. This later gave me the idea to photograph underwater.
Completely inexperienced I started in 2005 with underwater photography with a small compact camera. Over the years I expanded my photography equipment to a more high quality digital camera with a protective underwater housing. Because light and colors disappear as one descends deeper, strong lights were also very important. If necessary, the photos are updated afterwards using the computer.
This hobby has already taken me to all corners of the world but my favourite places so far are : Galapagos, Asia
