Mabul / Kapalai Pics

Sharing some images from my last trip.

Comments welcomed.

Take with C-7070

with dual Inon macro lens stack

Twin freehand Inon D2000w strobe

Very nice! By "twin freehand" do you mean you somehow hand-held TWO strobes? If so, that's very impressive!

Cheers

Yes your right James... holding two strobes with my left hand and right hand holding the camera. :-)

Tough for me too especially shooting the pygmy as I had to stay in position against the current.

Nice!

Crikey! You've got skills handholding two strobes. Even more kudos!

Got any more to share?

Did you go to Sipadan too?

That's pretty cool...

even more cool is that you are our first 3 armed poster ... and from singapore too... has the recycled water supply been that "tasty"?

great pygmy!

whats the on 3rd pix?

For the time being I'm stuck preparing for my Bali trip next week. So I had to put all my photos on hold from Kapalai / Mabul.

I did not go to Sipadan this time round as I was not that keen to do wide angle even though I figured trying to take using ambient light without strobes. Vis was not that great either.

Hahaha... sheeez... ain't a 3 armed poster.. just managed to hold 2 strobes in one hand that's all..

we've been unknowningly drinking more and more recycled water in the system... since the "big boss" thinks it is not news anymore..

3rd pic is a skeleton shirmp.

Great stuff. I was in Sipadan/Mabul/Kapalai recently too. Really enjoyed it and shot many of the same individuals as you!

I am also going to be in Bali in a couple of weeks - so maybe see you there.

Well if you don't have 3 arms, I know you have 3 big bosses. God, baby God and the devil. Please choose and name which one as you please.

Hmmm.. I shall keep my 3 big bosses (if any) a secret. haha.

Geez, that's a relief. I was wondering how you would pull that off with a strobe in each outstretched hand and the housing balanced on your head

Love the pigmy BTW

Thank you for all your comments.. :-)

Hopefully when you guys come down to Asia we get a chance to dive..

Otherwise if you guys are in Singapore drop me a PM and we can meet up for coffee or dinner.

Hi Ivan,

Good to see you here!

Beautiful stuff! I especially like the pygmy with the nice backlighting.

I really appreciate your help during my trip to Lembeh.

I'll more than likely be passing through Singapore before the end of the year, so it will be nice to meet up again.

Cheers.

Michael.

Let me know when.. will be off to Bali on Tuesday till 1st Sept.

Lembeh in Oct and Anilao year end.

Going for a dive trip?

How's things for you in China?

PM me your MSN if you do have any.
