    Very Nice! Spent a week on Bali in September and didn't get any diving in - which I regret tremendously after watching your footage!
  • Alex.Be. 10 months ago
    Thanks!
    ...what a pity!

    Stunning shots of unbelievable fish! Can you see these snorkling also? We go there coming month! Was it Candidasa earea? On Bali Channel now also!
  • Alex.Be. 10 months ago
    Thanks a lot Jan!
    These scenes were shot on different dive spots along the Tulamben coast, also at Seraya, Puri Jati and Padanbai.
    If you have eagle eyes you might see some of these, but the chance is small, because they are tiny. What you definitly can see, is on my next video waiting to upload, called "Daylife in
    Tulamben"

    Geniale UW-Aufnahmen!!!
    Ich tauche selbst auch, wenn auch noch nicht so lange und leider nicht so oft in solch herrlichen Gewässern.
    Was ich aber schon weiß, ist, dass man den Fangschreckenkrebs Odontodactylus scyllarus bei 00:30 mit Vorsicht genießen sollte. Gerade als Filmer oder Fotograf. Diese Krebsart hat schon so manche Optik / Scheibe von UW-Gehäusen auf dem Kerbholz! :o)

    Absolut starke Bilder einer faszinierenden Welt!!!

    Gruß Edgar

    These are some really amazing shoots, not only do you have an excellent eye for the hidden small critters you also know how where to find them. One can clearly see that you fancy critters and predators.

    Having way to many marine fish tanks thats what I want to shoot at home !

    Gerne mehr davon !

    Cheers

  • bob lorrimer 9 months ago
    Awesome is not enough!

    There appears to be an acceptable DOF which I find suprising when so close to the subject matter.

    It is also difficult for the non marine expert to judge the SCALE. Next time perhaps you could take a can of beer to.....sacre bleu!

    Bob
  • Alex.Be. 9 months ago
    Thanks Bob!

    I thought of during the editing.
    So i should call it "marine life expert video" the next time :-)
    But if you like to know scales, feel free to ask me!

  • byte4byte 9 months ago
    wow, Wow, WOW! I wonder what all those 'We've never been to the moon' conspiracy theorists would say about this?! Thank you for pulling back the curtain on a beauty the majority of us will never experience firsthand.
  • Alex.Be. 9 months ago
    You hit the bull´s eye!

    The underwater world is unbelievable amazing, believe me! No matter where you look, you will always find creatures. All sizes are represented.
    If i could i would stay there for ever!

    Sehr sehr sehr sehr schöne Aufnahmen, ich filme mit der gleichen Kamera...ich weiß wie gut die Bildqualität ist, aber diese Nähe zu den Tieren unter Wasser... riesen Respekt!

  • Amenon plus 9 months ago
    Simply marvellous - I think this is some of the best underwater footage I've ever seen. I haven't seen such vivid colours underwater for many years - most of the coral seems to be dead and bleached in so many places.

    Wonder how many different life-forms are visible in this video - it would be a nice challenge to marine biologists to identify all of them.

    Thank you very much for doing such a great job - filming, editing and sharing. Loved the music too.

  • Alex Hsiao 9 months ago
    can you tell me what equipment you needed to make this shoot possible (cameras, lights, cases...)? and what kind of challenges you face while trying to shoot underseas? (water pressure, lighting)? this video inspires me to get a scuba license and go exploring

    First I think, that this are all fake-animals, but then more and more I realise, that the nature is the best factory for make stunnig the people on the sureal liveside of technic and business. What for a poor world we are living in, that we need movies like this for open our eyes.
    Great job, great feeling !

    One of my favorites, awesome! I've watched it multiple times, showed it to my GF (who was initially creeped out but thinks its beautiful) and my SCUBA buddies. I've taken time off of SCUBA but this video makes me want to go back asap! By the way which song of Tom La Meche is it?
  • Alex.Be. 9 months ago
    Thanks Ducati!
    Puhhh...I don´t know, i will have a look on my editing pc tomorrow.
    Or you download/listen to the song/album on jamendo.com under creative commons licence.
    There isn´t many from Tom La Meche so you easily can find the right one.
  • Alex.Be. 9 months ago
    The song´s called "Pantin des cendres"

    Those pictures are breath taking.

    Just hope that those little critters arent killed off by the world and its habbits!

    Keep up the good work, and how much did your water housing cost? where do you get it, I've got an hc3 and hc9 i want to take in the water.
