This is a short video done during a crossing I did in 2012, from St-Maarten to the Azores. I swam in the ocean on 3 occasions - one with some triggerfish and tripletail who had taken refuge under a floating crate, one with a sperm whale, and one with a sunfish (moonfish).
The footage was shot with a GoPro. I had 2 casings, one for underwater filming - with a flat lens, and one with a regular dome lens. Unfortunately, I took the wrong casing when I swam with the sunfish, which explains the blurry image - sorry!
I was not able to film a lot and overall had no more than 10 minutes of footage - everything included. Of that, roughly only 5 minutes were usable. But I think though that the slow motion with the music worked pretty well.
The music is from Tosca, 2504/1 from the album Dehli 9
