Hi Bishoy . Thanks a lot for watching , the Red sea is indeed a fantastic place

Hi Ron , you kind comments are very gratifying and do thrill me . Funny thing is , i am currently editing a video about a diving trip i had in the Philippines last month but i have been struggling so hard to make it look good enough that i was on the verge of quitting . Your valuable reviews have boosted me to get back at it . Thank you very much Ron.

Very impressive work you have done here, thanks alot. Looking forward to my diving trip to Elphinstone 🥽👌

Hi Franc , sorry just realised that you had put a comment , thanks a lot . I hope Elphinstone came up to your expectations.

Hi There , thank you so much for the outstanding compliment, Agreed with the viz , we were lucky indeed except on the wreck , Thanks once again

Thank you so much for your kind words Dean. I am glad you could watch it in 4K as it does make a real difference. Much appreciated

Hello Nesta . Thank you so much for your wonderful comments and thank you for having subscribed . It does take some experience and buoyancy skills but dedication is paramount . You obviously need good equipment and a strong editing software . Add some long and nerve wrecking editing hours, the support + stimulating great comments such as yours and you have all the ingredients for the final result ... even though I am never fully satisfied . Once again Many thanks

Vielen lieben Dank für deine netten Worte. Wir haben uns sehr darüber gefreut. Und es stimmt natürlich, dass die dazu passende Musik eine große Rolle spielt. Wir haben eine Videokamera Sony AX100 mit einem Unterwassergehäuse Gates und Videolampen von Keldan benutzt.

Thanks a lot for watching and for the nice comment . Please keep a seat next to you in the plane as I am dying to go back there too 😂

@@UnderwaterJourney I'd be happy to travel with you 😊 just say when

Yann Faure it is really nice. 👍🏼

Thank you very much for your kind comment . Nope, i am not on social media . Thanks again

I missed that one too . Thanks a lot Jean-Charles.

Hi Val . Nice to hear from you again and thrilled to read your positive feedback . I am sorry to learn that your trip was canceled . I was myself scheduled to go to Sudan and unfortunately it is canceled too . Let's hope for better days . On the other hand, i am thinking , we divers, are giving the marine environment a break at the moment and it must have a soothing effect on the ecosystem . Take care Val.

Hi Gerry , thank a lot for your kind comments .The Red Sea is known for its unsurpassed visibility and you will love your dives there

Hello Matthias , Thank you very much for watching and for your appreciation. The lion fish is one of my favourite ones , it is so gracious ! Those were very cooperative 😊 playing with my lights to swallow their preys and it was actually easy to focus on their shadows as they were all over the place . I am glad you realised such details.

@@UnderwaterJourney My pleasure. I have caught Lion Fish on video but never anything near this. They were all stationary. Still beautiful though.

@@MatteLson66 Try during a night dive, use your lights and they will become very active, Cheers !

Namaste . I cannot thank you enough for your thoughtfulness and for putting a smile in my heart ! I am genuinely happy to share those videos with you . Have a good day Sherry .

Hallo Peter, vielen dank für deinen feedback. Es freut mich, da ich viel Arbeit in dieses Video gesteckt habe.Ich stimme mit dir zu, dass das Licht eine grosse Rolle in ein Video steckt. Als für die Abonnenten, so ein netter Kommentar wie von dir macht mich mehr stolz.Danke und liebe Grüße

Hi Sarah , I film with a Sony AX100 . I use a tripod on land and more than 25 years of buoyancy practise underwater. Thanks for your comments and for watching.

@@UnderwaterJourney As of version 8 the GoPro Action Cams have a very good stabilizer. To some extend you can also use the warp stabilizer in Adobe Premiere Pro.

@@buchpetzer Thanks for the feedback , Gopro has improved a lot indeed

Hi Petr , my sincere appreciation for your kind and astute comments . Your question is truly interesting because what is indeed the real essence of a dive ? To tell you you the truth I have been diving for a very long time and even used to work as a dive instructor . At that time , the goal was twofold , security for the students/clients and finding all kind of marine life for them to watch but I had no concern about filming. The more you dive the better you obviously know your environment and the species behaviour which helps for filming underwater . I have always loved diving whether I had to lead or for my own pleasure , with or without a camera . Nowadays , I do a lot of solo diving where I live in Malta which means I have long dives and ample time to alternatively film or simply enjoy the scenery . It gets trickier when on dive trips because I usually dive new spots for the first time , bottom time is reduced because you dive within a precise framework decided by the dive operation , your freedom is hence limited . In such cases I must admit that I sadly focus on filming , I still enjoy the dive but I realise that I miss out a lot . I sometimes even feel stupid trying to achieve the perfect shot when the real thing should be to hover and admire what is around you . Sorry Petr for my long and boring answer but I found your question too relevant to be disregarded . Thanks again and season greetings .

@@UnderwaterJourney Dear Yann, thank you for your long answer. I'm keen on diving and filming as well, unfortunately, I don't have so many opportunities to dive so often. There is a time I want simply relax underwater and sometimes there is the need to share the underwater experience. I'll be happy to see more nice videos!

@@PetrKominek Thanks Petr . Most important thing is : keep on enjoying yourself. All the best

Thanks a lot Nuwan .

Hello Gerry , Thank you so much for your nice comments .

Yann Faure Pleasure to watch! Thinking of diving there in 2020!

@@GerryGreenGoProMermaid Good idea , you should head south to Elphinstone , Daedalus and Brothers.

Yann Faure just need to do a bit of research into which dive shops we can choose from!

@@GerryGreenGoProMermaid Liveaboard is the best option

Hello Mahi , thank you very much for your kind comment , it means a lot to me . I use a pair of Sola lights .

Thanks Chris , A pair of Sola 1200

Hi Jeroen , thanks a lot for your comment , Sony AX100 and Gates housing , enjoy your trip back there.

Thank you very much for your nice comment ! That would depend whether you want a land-based operation or a liveaboard . I would recommend Red Sea diving safari in Marsa alam as a land based dive center

@@UnderwaterJourney great, thanks for the tip!

Hi elllaruby x . . I really hope that you will then see a shark very soon for it is one of the most mesmerizing animal you can see underwater. Many types of sharks can be found indeed in the Red Sea. Thank you for your question but with all due respect , reality is exactly quite the opposite, as we, humans , are the intruders and the ones bothering the sharks . Never forget that those beautiful creatures were already navigating oceans and seas way long before Gagnan and Cousteau were born.The shark , i suppose that you are probably referring to is the notorious Oceanic white tip (Longimanus) which is known to be inquisitive .You also have to distinguish between coastal reefs and off shore reefs as the Longimanus by nature will rather be cruising the latter ones. So , if you want to avoid this shark at any cost do not dive offshore reefs such as Abu Hamra , the brothers and Abu Kizan. Otherwise , do not worrry as you will be briefed accordingly just like you would be briefed for example about the hazards of blue ringed octopus in other parts of the world.Last but not least the best way to debunk shark myths is to avoid mainstream media. I hope you will enjoy your dives in the magnificent Red Sea.

Thank you for your message Lennard . Even though some dive centers/ liveaboards take the foolish risk of bringing open water divers there , I would strongly recommend a minimum of an advanced certification and some solid experience in deep diving. Elphinstone is in the open sea , has vertical drop offs, unpredictable and sometimes strong currents and choppy waters at times.Perfect buoyancy is a prerequisite as you either drift or hover in the blue with great depths below. Diving Elphinstone requires utmost respect and humbleness , the tragic events of 2007 are a undisputed reminder of that . I hope that answers your question .

Sony AX100

The Longimanus is in Elphinstone .

Thank yo very much !

@@UnderwaterJourney You welcome! In June we are planning a liveaboard in South Egypt ... see your video did me get even more anxious!!!
