Absolutely beautiful underwater photography by Darek Sepiolo
who was kind enough to give me permission to embed the video on my blog.
North Sulawesi is a province of Indonesia.

Thanks Mags. Good to see Nemo the clownfish again, with a lot of new friends. I was intrigued by the fish which appeared to have front legs as they moved across the sea floor. Cheers.
Hi Mal,
Some of the sea creatures I hadn’t seen before either, I agree the fish did look like it had front legs, very pretty in a way.
This is superb!
I’d like to know more about his techniques, because the pictures I took on the Barrier Reef from the semi-sub and the glass-bottomed boat all came out with a bluish cast … except when we got really close, like in http://www.flickr.com/photos/31258795@N00/5450491596/.
I suspect that flash would only reflect off the windows … maybe I should choose a vessel with an external searchlight, or something.
And, don’t suggest diving; I couldn’t afford the kind of camera that these guys use!
Hi travelrat,
Still very nice pictures you took. I think it’s always hard taking photo’s through glass so I thought you did a wonderful job. I have used a flash through glass, and I got a very bright light back at me, so it didn’t work all that well at all. I think you would need very expensive equipment to be able to take those type of photo’s.
Wouldn’t we all love to have an underwater camera, I think they are fantastic.
I disabled the flash, because there was enough light to take pictures without it. And, someone told me you can buy a transparent waterproof plastic case into which you can put an inexpensive digital compact, which gives satisfactory results.
I keep meaning to enquire about them next time I pass Jessop’s … but keep forgetting!
