TQ so much! 🙏🏼 In Apr/May, I've got 2 dive trips + 1 volcano hike planned (in Philippines & Indonesia), so will upload more after that. Cheers!

Great video! Amazing choice of music and cutting! I was at sipadan this summer and it was one of the gratest experiences in my entire life! Hope this video spreads so every human can see what diversity we have to protect underwater

[@retireeinthewild-5905]

TQ for your kind comment 🙏🏼 Indeed, Sipadan is great 😊

[@Алена-ж3ц7р]

Hi 👋 Please, could you tell me the name of diving centre which you dived with at Sipadan? Thank you!

[@garrycomans5889]

One of the great dives on my bucket list that I missed out on. Covid sure put a damper on my scuba desires. Wonderful video, just what you should do in retirement.

I was there over Xmas! But I honestly cannot remember names except the turtles and lionfish so it's great that you have names :)

Nice video, the video quality seems amazing. What is your set up? Thanks a lot.

[@retireeinthewild-5905]

TQ for your kind comment 🙏🏼 I mostly use my GoPro Hero 10, and I find that its Auto WB works so much better than the Hero 4 that I earlier had. In my camera rig, I also carry an Olympus TG6 intended for Macro, but I haven't really got started on Macro video yet, so haven't used it much.. I'm now planning a dive trip dedicated to Macro (maybe Lembeh Strait) so I can practice it and hopefully get some decent result. Video is more challenging than strobe photo, I feel, but I'm gonna try.. 🤓🙂

[@retireeinthewild-5905]

Btw, I use Backscatter MW4300 video lights too - so easy to use and with quick shift between Wide & Macro beam.

[@retireeinthewild-5905]

Finally, I use FCPX to colour correct, edit etc.

[@SublimeDepthsWithRaul]

What has happened to the tornado of black tail barracuda?

[@retireeinthewild-5905]

Not sure. We went in Dec, and at least one DM said that while it seems generally harder to find schools of Chevron Barracuda these days, going in ~May would probably increase the chance (and visibility will be better).

@@retireeinthewild-5905 I used to see a group of 2 feet barracuda storm around Mabul House Reef. Sipadan will be my bucket list after obtained AOW. Also waiting air asia launches direct flight from KK to Manado Sulawesi in Sep 2024.
