More Red Sea video

Hi,

well it seems that there are plenty of sharks around in the Red Sea at the moment judging by other posts here.

I've uploaded a 15 minute clip to vimeo, entitled "Red Sea diving" (there's an original title...)

http://www.vimeo.com/2317886

The trip was during the 1st week of November. The sharks were all at 2 sites - the Brothers and Daedalus reef. We didn't see any at Elphinstone, but there were a lot of boats there that day and that might have had something to do with it.

This is actually the first time I've posted a video, so any comments would be welcome.

Hope you like it.

Great stuff, Mat. All nicely whitebalanced. You had great luck with sharks, manta etc. I was out at Elphinstone the following week and we had oceanics, but it would have been great to get the hammerheads and threshers at Brothers.

Thanks Ferg42 - I really enjoyed your video too, and your website.

Funny how we stay calm enough with oceanics so that we can hold a camera still, but when there's a trigger fish less than a couple of feet long we're so much more nervous. I suppose the chances of actually being bitten by a trigger fish are so much higher!

Cheers,

Mat

my port was just a few inches at times....probably a bit silly really, but good to watch.

Stewsmith - ouch that triggerfish was close! seriously scary teeth.

Great shot, but I'm not sure I'd dare get that close!

Cheers,

Mat
