11/08/2007: "DREAM COMES TRUE ....... Ben Cropp has ideal lifestyle"
The following pictures show the lifestyle of Australia's Ben Cropp as he travels the northern Great Barrier Reef from his home at Port Douglas. With over 100 documentary TV films made to date and a twin hull cruiser as a filming platform, he is Australia's nearest equivalent to Jacques Cousteau.
The following pictures have been taken during several expeditions where I was aboard as deckhand and diving assistant - and on one trip a 2nd cameraman. I've also written the script for "Tale of a Shark Hunter" the story of Ben's underwater career inspired as an idea by Peter West. (NUMA).
