[docmus]

Delightful. A joy to watch and makes me even keener for my next dive experience.

[SuperEasytiger]

yes KLN003 but there are also good dive stories on the net too. type dive stories into google. My favorite is the myscubastory site, as it has real stories n videos n photos too. The myscubastory site should come up if you type "dive stories" in google . Enjoy

[gflow2323]

This is why I want to be an underwater videographer....AMAZING

[fupenjiu]

i'd like to put all those fish in my tank

[YouTooVid]

Simply stunning. As an amateur who aspires to dive and shoot, this is truly an inspiration Beautiful images like these re-energize my soul. Thank you!

[filmedonkohtao]

Always Impressed with your camera work

[teentitans0789]

the answer to life itself is held within water, by definition if you think about it.

[gromeroskwelch]

Amazing video, great stuff. How does Koh Tao compare to Similan Islands off the other side of the coast?

[1HarryH]

Awesome! Seas can be found in a treasure trove. This video is really beautiful and very well edited, a gem. Thank you Alan.

[richardfireone]

Love you video.Awesome potential. I wished I could have edited it. slow it down 50%, drop the music a little and we would enjoy the shots a little longer. godspeed

[LifeEnhancementChris]

What an incredible video! High quality; vivid colors. What a wonderful creation we live in!

-Christopher

[karlphillips1]

truly top notch as always.your vids really give you the impression that you are there in the ocean,with wonderfull vivid clarity.keep em coming

[Pathologyofawargamer]

Talk about living the dream- Here's why I want to retire in Thailand...

[LittleMsChachi]

Brilliant combination of video & music. It's been a long time since I've been diving, sticking to snorkeling due to a jaw issue. Thanks for taking me there.

[olynling19]

beautiful world underneath (^_^)

wish i could see it personally..

[olynling19]

beautiful world underneath (^_^)

[IcecOOltuga]

Simply amazing, great footage ;)

[primevk]

That was Incredible!!!

[MarQu3]

That was amazing..

[elgarasha]

Great video Alan, could almost use it as a this what we shall see during orientation and that's the guy filming you at the end of it...

[LiquidVDO]

@elgarasha lol, thanks for the comment Nacho!

[Cynn143]

awesome video.. loved it!

[aznccsf21]

wow that is absolutely gorgeous! I'll be diving in Koh Tao in November and hope to see what you have seen! Amazing job!

[jaljali1]

nice video Mr alan tansey. what keine of camera do you have? think you.

[Scampergirl]

Oh my God....what a beautiful world underneath. I would so love to experience that...only my fear of the Sharks keep me landlocked. The color of your filming is so gorgeous!

[LiquidVDO]

@Scampergirl Thanks, but don't fear sharks, they are one of the reasons I love diving so much and they are more in Danger from us.

[flspy]

@Scampergirl  You are in 1000 times greater danger getting in your car and driving to the beach than you are from anything swimming in the water.

[9KoubA2]

@Scampergirl You are more likely to be struck by lightning then get bitten by a shark x)

And honestly, sharks won't do anything to you unless you really provoke them, and they give you a very obvious and long warning before they attack you, to get you to leave first.

[aquadolphins247]

@Scampergirl Have no fear considering more sharks are killed by us that people get bitten by sharks...look it up sometime you might be amazed

[MrxBuiscuitX]

How deep did you go?

[LiquidVDO]

@MrxBuiscuitX ranging in depth from 5 to 30 meters.

[mog89]

Hi!

I'm making a video of my trip to thailand. I visited Koh Tao but do not have any media to work with from underwater, is it OK if I download and use some of the content you have in this video?

best regards

[LiquidVDO]

@mog89 I don't mind people down loading my videos, but I don't like when they change my work and then claim credit which I found a Hungarian Videographer doing recently.

[ScubaVideoServices]

@LiquidVDO that is not good! Well, if you want to take this on the good side, think that their video is gonna look bad as it is impossible to reproduce the HD quality form a compressed YouTUbe video! Personnaly I offer for a very affordable price sequences of my films. I have no doubt people try to 'pirate' it and there is no much I can do about it!

I like your videos LiquidVDO, great stuff!

[muddaking122]

wow

[MrJamin17]

Amazing video man!!! what equipment did you use for this video?

[LiquidVDO]

@MrJamin17 Sony HDV HC9 camera with a GATES Housing, Fathom Lens and Greenforce HID Lights.

[rockinit13fam]

Beautiful video. It really captures the undersea life and beauty of the earth. Thank you for uploading.

[Michael061558]

Excellent underwater cinematography Alan. Some of your very best work I've seen to date. Well done.

[LiquidVDO]

@Michael061558 Thanks Michael checking out your channel, very nice too.

[hashimserag]

[Itsjames1]

[LiquidVDO]

@Itsjames1 The Artist is Alexander Blu and you can find him on Jamendo.com

[Digitalmocean]

Nice footage.

Spent two weeks diving off Koh Tao last year.... clear blue water - tremendous....

[EsTheAtomicBomb]

Just fricking lucky wow it makes my head wanna pop off looking at that paradise

[debengal]

For photographers, for underwater photographers, for underwater videographers, and for divers , you deserve the best score! i don't know how many dives and trips for this 4-minute superb heart-breaking clip. Thanks for sharing this and educating people like me about: the correct gadget/diving spot/diving skill/safety skill and ... your sense of art and editing. Can't wait for your "indonesia piece".

[Dorisequador]

awsome dude.. very nice video..

[BravoCharlieTV]

Thank you very much for the video - really inspiring, I'm getting my head around the HDR units in the field and this has been valuable learning related to messing about with lenses and the like - it's a quality piece of kit straight out of the box :)

[dickdog75]

damn this is some amazing video! i have a problem with my video camera and underwater housing being too bouyant underwater. makes the video a little shaky. i am using the canon vixia hf20 and the wp-v1 housing.

[IslanProd]

The Best video !!! Excellent video !

[haloplaya8213]

i miss Thai! :( wanna go back there!  sabai dee(hi) to all the lao and thai people who are watching this!

[underwaterheven]

Beautiful Work and the best color I've seen from videos in this area and great edit really fits the music.

[tanyahill9]

This is visual poetry, being able to see all these creatures and corals up close. the colors were breathtaking and being able to look eye to eye with the turtle. Thankyou for sharing this. Can you suggest a smaller camera for two beginners, who live in Hawaii and love to snorkel, but are used to good cameras?

[danmele]

who does the song?

[duncan1306]

simply sublime. best place that i have dived. and a great video. never seen turtles there though.

[Brulluhman]

Cool!!

[MrVineetable]

amazing vid, i'v defy seen it more than 10 time by now.. cudnt agree more with meltdownman, keep positing more vids. btw I'll be in tao starting 26th this month, and plan to go diving for the first time by doing the open water course.. really really psyched for the trip..

[Samadhijunkie]

[lee1011]

Very nice work!! I enjoy to see this again and again. :")

[ChrisClaxton]

[colinf94404]

[SeanPhuket]

Pucka vid!

[underwateri]

Which cameras did you use?

[LiquidVDO]

Filmed in HDV with a Sony HDR HC9 with GATES housing and Greenforce Lights.

[titsgalore48]

?

[68ppl]

Congratulations for the video. One of the best dive videos i've ever seen

[letrotteur]

Amazing! Can't wait to be back out there... ;-) I'm curious, what is the music?

[OzMarineBoy]

[bugz610123]

[Richiebosch]

Memories... *sigh*

[imirchbodor]

[aeygili]

some world class shots and underwater critters from a little rock in the gulf of Thailand!!! its got it all... well nearly! just magnificent

[elisabeteazulmar]

So grand!!!!

Thank you so very much for sharing these views and sounds! It's views and sounds like these that make life so much worse being loved and lived!!!

[ss4vegeta100]

amazing footage. I wish I could be there. I hope people appreciate the reefs and work better at preserving the reefs. keep up the work

[LifeEnhancementChris]

Absolutely incredible! It definitely gives one more appreciation for what lives beneath...

[ghaloub]

awesome !!!

[meltdownman1]

Extremely beautiful. Enough to make a grown man cry. I wish the whole world could dive and see these seahorses and the whale sharks in person. Our oceans would be treated much more fairly.  I will def. keep you in mind when I plan my trip to Thailand because all these things I want to film and share with others.

You have one of the most fantastic jobs in the world and I envy you. Keep up the excellent work in educating people on the beauty that lies beneath our oceans.

The Meltdownman

[LiquidVDO]

@meltdownman Thank you so much for your nice comment, I really enjoy what I do and am happy to share the experience and beauty of the Underwater world with others.

[Shistermyster]

[CoryizCrazy]

[pavos21]

[LiquidVDO]

Yes Red Correctional filter and Manual White Balance.

[pavos21]

[abuufahad]

Great Job...very nice shots..

Thanks alot

[mobileperry]

Very nice, thanks for sharing. By the way what camera did you use to shoot these clips?

[coristotle]

I would try to use such things but my filming is species of Alaskan trout in small fast moving currents that don't give me any space to work in.

[coristotle]

Your color and lighting is fantastic!

[LiquidVDO]

Thanks for the nice comment, I'm using Gates with Manual White Balance and Green Force Squid HID Lights.
