Thank you so much , you definitely should dive there , Komodo is undoubtedly one of the most prolific and richest marine environments in the world , the dives are just breathtaking

[@ssalmero]

Outstanding video and edit!!!! Congrats.

[@SearenityQuest]

Very kind of you 🙏, i am glad you liked it .

[@gillescharvet]

Superbe réalisation, bravo pour tout J’ai reconnu quelques morceaux de corail 😜 Et le nouveau logo est top

[@SearenityQuest]

Merci beaucoup Gilles pour tes encouragements . J'imagine en effet que certaines images te sont familières . Tu as toi-même filmé une très belle série de videos sur Komodo. Cet archipel est juste incroyable , quasiment chaque site est un régal (j'ai accumulé près de 3 heures de rushes ), Quant au logo , je te dois cette inspiration 😉 . Merci encore !

[@stefanusch]

Couldn’t say anything except thank you for the beautiful footage! It really is magnificent and looks just like a kingdom! I’m just in awe with everything 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@SearenityQuest]

Thank you so much Stefanus 🙏🙏 , your very kind comments mean a lot to me . Komodo is one of the richest , most diverse and most remarkable ecosystems on Earth. A genuine gem .

[@underwatermarvels3206]

Another masterpiece... I could not except nothing less from you! Komodo was my first diving destination after my diving course and still is one of my favorites!

[@SearenityQuest]

i always spend so much time and sweat to make those videos watchable that when i read kind comments like yours , i feel rewarded a hundredfold, thank you so very much . Komodo had obviously always been on my bucket list , since the very beginning . Now that i have discovered this gem, i wish i had been there much earlier but at the same time I'm also delighted to realise that the underwater world never fails to amaze me. The diving in Komodo is indeed spectacular , the dive sites truly gorgeous . So much variety ,so rich and so colorful , you were spoilt to dive there right after your course and i definitely understand why it is still one of your favorites . 🙏

[@indieoceanfilm]

This is Komodo itself, love your works. Cheers!

[@SearenityQuest]

Thank you very much 🙏 , love yours too . Komodo the one and only !

[@holgeripsen]

Absolutely amazing footage. I love the intro, the angle the cut are perfect. Great cinema! Thank you so much for this inspiring movie. I hope we can once dive and film together some day. Regards Holger

[@SearenityQuest]

Your kind comments are truly touching , I can't thank you enough 🙏. Diving together one day would be indeed very nice , next trip planned will be the Azores Thanks a bunch again !

Thank you so much 🙏 . It would be a pleasure to dive together in Malta or elsewhere !

The best (and rarest) critter the Painted Stingfish (Minous pictus) @ 15:10 🤗

[@SearenityQuest]

Hey Jonnie , well done it is indeed a Painted Stingfish , beautiful colors and clumsy walker . Looks very cute but can be harmful . Never saw it in daytime though . Cheers

[@jonnieinbangkok]

@@SearenityQuest Yes, they're mostly nocturnal.

Fabulous corals! You really brought out the colors with, it seems, proper white balance. Thanks for sharing.

[@SearenityQuest]

Thank you very much for watching and for your kind comment , the corals are indeed fantastic !

[@eikavi]

Astounding and professional! ❤

[@SearenityQuest]

Thank you so much Eikavi ! Your flattering comments truly mean a lot to us🙏🙏🙏

[@czele123]

World class production! Doreen and you are so talented! I have just returned from Komodo but due to conditions missed some top rated sites 🙁🐟.

[@SearenityQuest]

Thank you so much once more my dear Radek . So sorry to learn that you missed some good sites , do you mean Batu Bolong and the Northern ones , rough conditions current wise or weather wise?

[@czele123]

@@SearenityQuest Yes, due to very strong currents and some rain up north we didn’t venture to north sites and we also for safety reasons we didn’t dive Batu Bolong. We were geared up on location but the dive was canceled unfortunately due to violent looking currents. I visited Komodo in 2019 during full moon and we managed fine, this time we avoided full Moon but turns out New Moon is more less equal to full moon as far as currents 😳. We visited during their rain season - manta season which rewarded us seeing 18 mantas!

[@SearenityQuest]

​@@czele123 So sad to hear , thank God you had already dove those sites before , the currents can indeed be very treacherous over there and should be dealt with utmost respect , that's why the Komodo dive guides need to be super experienced . I agree with you about the moon phases , new or full is about the same . I experienced those ' Spring currents ' once in Palau during new moon and the conditions were very rough and unstable . On this last trip though , the only unmanageable current i experienced was in Nusa Penida and not in Komodo . Wow , 18 mantas at once , i never saw that many in the same time , that must be quite a show . Take care Radek , it was nice sharing this with you .

[@czele123]

@@SearenityQuest Yes, very true about currents and experience of local dive guides. Oh well , another reason to return to Komodo to visit again! I will watch your video “ few” more times to look for inspiration while I sort out 200GB of footage I came home with….. Until next time, happy diving and take care as well.

[@Georgethediver]

Well done!!!!

[@SearenityQuest]

Thank you very much.

[@Tim_Wouters]

Simply amazing! Very nicely filmed! Do you mind if i ask what camera this was shot on?

[@SearenityQuest]

Thank you very much Tim , Aerial shots with Mavic mini , land with iPhone 13 and underwater footage with the Sony AX 100 + Gates housing and Keldan lights .

[@atriana4691]

Trully 👍👍

[@SearenityQuest]

Thank you so much , it means a lot to me !🙏

[@eugenelee1250]

So professional, it felt so soothing watching these masterpiece. What camera setup did you use to film these?

[@SearenityQuest]

Thank you for watching and your kind review. Everything was shot in 4K except for the drone (HD) , manual white balance , 24p, the rest is done with editing.

[@MrOhUW]

9:40 can you tell me which point did you see them?

[@SearenityQuest]

This was a real nice surprise really , we spotted those Blue Lined Sea Bream (Symphorichthys spilurus) at the very beginning of the dive at the fantastic Castle rock dive site at around 45 metres , quite rare encounter ! Palau has the biggest spawning congregation of this species on the blue planet !

[@MrOhUW]

@@SearenityQuest thank u i will go for that to palau this march . i also surprised to see that on your video. very lucky in castle ! nice thank u

[@SearenityQuest]

I think the spawning takes place in March or April in Palau , looking forward to seeing your video of this huge school . The guide was not so surprised to spot the Sea Bream but I felt lucky , that's for sure. Take care
