Awesome dive at sund rock
Awesome dive at sund rock
So I finally got some of my shorter clips to upload. I got around three hours of footage on our recient trip to the little yellow house and sund rock. but youtube frowns on three hour videos shot in 1080p so i am forced to upload it in much shorter and downgraded clips but you can at least tell whats going on. enjoy.

Re: Awesome dive at sund rock
Thanks you for sharing these videos. That is amazing footage of the soaring GPO - you are very lucky to see let alone capture it with such great video footage. Well done!

Re: Awesome dive at sund rock
Cool you have the same Camera as me.. Is your video light a single or a dual setup.. Being able to video an octo like that is prob 1 in a Million .. It looked like it was Hovering forever, but you were Probably swimming like crazy to stay along side of it

Re: Awesome dive at sund rock
I had such a great time on that trip I decided to come back this weekend... I went back to that wreck yesterday, nothing there. But I did see 2 large GPO at octopus hole out and about, and the Wolfies were out in force late yesterday at Sund Rock. I think I saw 8-9 out in the open swimming around but my light flooded so no video, I did get some great shots though.

Your first video of the GPO swimming is awesome! You did a really great job of capturing different angles and POVs.

I stopped in at Evergreen Scuba today and watched some of these videos on a larger screen with Aaron. If you think that they look good here on NWDC you should see them at full size.....really, really nice!

Amazing footage. Just remember that all the individuals there are currently being severely stressed by low dissolved oxygen levels.
Making them exert themselves is putting a lot of stress on them.
