Underwater Photography by Ashley Hauck

Work, work, work. It has been a hectic couple of weeks for me and I simply haven't had the time to review blogs. So, at long last, here is my next Scuba Blog Review. This time I am reviewing a scuba blog by  Ashley Hauck, a self-taught underwater photographer. She has posted on her blog since 2012.

The Diving Blog

The name of the blogger of The Diving Blog is David Harmon. The aim of his blog is, as he states,  'to discuss issues faced by scuba divers of all levels, offer tips as I come across them, and educate divers about their undersea world'.

From non-diver to tech / dive master

The writer of this week's Scuba Blog Review is quite new to diving, having started in 2005. He has apparently been diving very actively the whole time to date. Way to Go!!

The writer of DKDive.com, Stefan, blogs quite regularly, with several posts every month. I can honestly only review the newer posts that are written in English. The older ones are in Danish, and the little Swedish that I know is almost, but not quite enough for me to really get a grasp of what the blogger is saying. SO, a review taking into consideration only the newer posts:

SCUBA DIVA

The topic of this week's Scuba Blog Review is Scuba Diva at http://scubasiren.blogspot.fi/. The blogger is dive instructor Poppy Julianna, and she has kept the blog since 2012.

Mike Clark's Dive Blog

Mike Clark's Dive Blog

I have spent this Easter weekend reading the dive blog of photographer Mike Clark. He has been diving since (wow!) 1985 and blogging very actively since 2008. Mike Clark has also written a book called Wrecks & Reefs of Southeast Scotland, which he sells online.

Doppler's Tech Diving Blog

This week I have reviewed Doppler's Tech Diving Blog. It is a dive blog by a professional diver, dive instructor, and industry consultant Steve Lewis. He has been diving for twenty years and has thousands of dives under his belt. The man has also written two books on diving. I guess he knows something about the subject. He has had the blog since 2008, writing about once a month.

divewithmia.com

This week I am reviewing divewithmia.com. It is a dive blog written by mia Toose, a PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer from Canada. She has been diving since 2001, and the oldest blog posts in this blog are from 2011. So she's a pro diver, and she also designs and sells women's wet suits!

Dive With Mia has made the Top 25 Best Scuba Diving Blogs list made by the Adventure Junkies. While that is undoubtedly a merit, the list focuses on metrics, search engine rankings and SEO, not actual content of the blogs. So here's my little attempt to correct that.

Vance's DivebLog

This is my very first dive blog review, hopefully the start of a long line of reviews to come. In the future I will try hard to publish reviews here weekly. So here goes, the beginning of a brand new blog!

The topic this week is Vance's Dive bLogs. This dive blog is Vance Stevens's personal dive log published, written pretty much like a diary. The style of the blog is very personal, and Vance talks about his own diving experiences. This may sometimes give the appearance that the blog is aimed at the writer's friends. Not that that's a bad thing in any way.
